파울 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

easy trail not recommended in summer unless you are a cold-blooded animal

A route suitable for everyone, both on foot and by bike. The best time to travel the route is definitely spring. The route starts from Villafranca P. (where there is parking) and continues towards Cardè and then goes back to the other bank of the Po. Nothing prevents you from starting from Cardè.

The Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of the Pilone originates from an extraordinary event: according to the chronicles, on July 23, 1684, a votive pillar dedicated to the Madonna began to mysteriously swing for several days, attracting crowds of faithful. On August 7, the first mass was celebrated under a tent, followed by the construction of a chapel to protect the Pilone. However, the influx of pilgrims made a larger building necessary: thus the current sanctuary was born, designed by the architect Gian Francesco Baroncelli, with a three-nave structure that still today houses the original chapel.

Place of worship and prayer Via Po, 1, 12033 Moretta CN 017294148

Beautiful sanctuary at the end of the Airasca-Moretta cycle path.

It is interesting to follow the entire path that runs along the Po, from Villafranca and almost up to Carde', then cross the bridge and return from the opposite side.

From the Airasca-Moretta cycle path, a splendid panorama of the river. Worth a stop.

After the bridge over the Pellice river, this is the last bridge that allows us to cross the Po on the old Airasca-Moretta railway, or Ciclabile delle Risorgive.
