A majestic and beautiful work, highly recommended tour

Beautiful medieval village on a hill, so a short 5-7% climb before and after.

Visible from afar, this shrine dominates a suggestive landscape of vineyards and rolling hills, a crossing point between the Alta Langa and the most famous Langa, that of the vineyards. The climb from Bastia Mondovì is gradual and never extreme, the landscape that gradually widens then repays the efforts. Bring water supplies because there is none to be found, furthermore the exposure of the road is almost all to the South. The visit to the shrine repays the small detour necessary to reach it.

Shrine of San Bernardo with a view, excellent for a stop

The majestic sanctuary where it is possible to venture onto the dome with a guided tour

The Castle of Carrù is an ancient fortress located in the city of Carrù, in the province of Cuneo. Dating back to the 12th century, the castle was built to defend the city from enemy attacks and has undergone numerous transformations over the centuries. In addition to its history, Castello di Carrù is also famous for the legend of the Blue Lady, a ghost who is said to still appear in the castle today. The castle is open to the public and can be visited during some Carruccesi events, such as the Grape Festival, and the surrounding area offers various activities, including excursions on foot and by bicycle, visits to wine cellars and tastings of local products.

The construction of the Shrine of St. Bernard dates back to the period 1947/1951. It was built on the highest hill in the area where, at that time, an elementary school and a small chapel stood. The work was financed with contributions from various organizations but above all thanks to the collaboration of many volunteers. In the churchyard, in the ossuary the bodies of eight partisans are collected and on the tombstones of the path of the Shrine are carved the names of about a thousand fallen in the struggle for liberation who, from September 1943 to April 1945 lost their lives in the Casotto valleys, Corsaglia, Ellero and in all the Langhe.
