Perfect ride for a gravel, almost all asphalt climb, from the lakes onwards half and half and then beautiful dirt road descent

A point to stop and admire the view.

The path of the ridges is a panoramic route that winds through the gully landscape of the Piana Crixia Park. In fact, you walk between ridges and steep slopes in continuous erosion, with the sole presence of pioneer vegetation.

Pleasant lakes located a few steps from the village of Pontinvrea, with a small dam that creates bathing areas both above and below. They are ideal for a refreshing summer swim, and have a lovely pebble beach. Along the road, there are also parking lots and picnic tables.

Going up from Saliceto towards the network of paths that reach Cengio and Gottasecca, you come across this curious rock church, simple but very suggestive. It is not indicated, so you have to be careful because it emerges almost suddenly from the bush. Ultimately it is a series of niches, of natural origin then manually reworked, which house some sacred images, curious rounded rock formations that emerge from the sandstone, a curious phenomenon but already seen in other areas around here. There is also a simple altar, difficult (at least for me) to date this place, which is nonetheless very suggestive.

Very similar to the Ciciu di Villar, they look like large mushrooms with a stem made of earth and a stone cap

It is a dialect word that originates from the fusion of "muròn" (large face) and riònd (round). Muriòn: big round face. The walls are formed as a result of selective erosion that tends to "preserve" the hardest and most compact sandstone blocks and to "consume" more of the more friable sandy sandstone.
