산 조르지오 카나베제 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

Torre Canavese, Bairo Canavese 및 Scarmagno 언덕 사이의 투어.

Always clean trails thanks to our friend Aldo and his collaborators

we were lucky enough to find it open and so in addition to the bike ride, there was also a Christian visit to the crypt

Nice sign, dedicated exclusively to those who ride bikes

Cute, especially the fake woodpecker 😂

After crossing Vialfrè along via Roma and via Borghetto, after a trail that runs alongside a fence you find yourself... in a meadow! Luckily, a providential sign guides you, to the left, to the start of the erratic boulders trail, other signs, to follow, show the right path first along an asphalt road, finally, with another left turn at a hairpin bend, back on the right path. Here begins a nice flowing stretch, never difficult (S2 max), but not at all trivial, because the ground, almost always pebbly, requires constant attention when driving. The trail is not critical, in the sense that, even "skipping" some deviations, you still find yourself on other paths almost parallel to the one I took. In the end, all the paths converge almost in the same point... in front of the highway to Aosta: following the trail, other nice paths lead to Villate.

It is said that, in ancient times, when the Cuceglio valley was shrouded in thick fog and silent legends, a shepherdess, lost among the rugged paths, found refuge under an ancient oak tree. In that solitary place, the Sorrowful Virgin appeared to her, wrapped in a cloak of light, who showed her the way back to her village. In memory of that miracle, the inhabitants of Cuceglio built a sanctuary on the hill, right at the point where the Virgin had appeared. Today, that sacred place, the Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of Sorrows, offers visitors not only a spiritual refuge, but also a spectacle for the eyes. Imagine yourself on that hill, with your gaze embracing the entire valley. The hills follow one another like waves of a green sea, dotted with ancient villages and cultivated fields. The wind whispers stories of times gone by, while the sun caresses the roofs of the houses and illuminates the bell tower of the sanctuary. The building, with its baroque architecture, stands majestically, witness to centuries of faith and devotion. The esplanade in front, with its solitary cross, invites contemplation and reflection. It is said that, on full moon nights, you can still hear the shepherdess singing, a distant echo of the miracle that gave rise to this magical place. Visiting the Sanctuary of the Virgin of Sorrows in Cuceglio means immersing yourself in an atmosphere of peace and spirituality, where the beauty of the landscape blends with history and legend.
