Colle Fauniera starting from the Maira Valley. Challenging route on asphalt. Approximately 1800 meters starting from Acceglio. Beautiful ride.

A very interesting museum for understanding the social and economic life of the local community in the last century.

Val Maira, wild and magnificent!

Stunning building: former neo-Gothic spinning mill with turrets, perfectly restored. It houses a cultural foundation. It is very beautiful to see from a distance, but it is located at a fairly busy roundabout - viewing from a distance requires taking some risks. However, once you reach the center of the roundabout, it works as a life preserver, and you can have fun taking photos.

The Devil's Bridge in Dronero, built in 1428 over the Maira torrent, is a remarkable example of medieval civil engineering. This bridge has three arches of different sizes and is slightly curved, with lateral parapets surmounted by swallow-tailed Ghibelline battlements. Originally, on the pillar of the smaller arch towards the centre of Dronero, there was a drawbridge, whose iron hinge was found under the road surface; this was removed in 1810 when the entrance passage was widened and the Ghibelline battlements were restored. The name "Devil's Bridge" comes from a local legend: it is said that, to overcome the difficulties in building the bridge, the inhabitants made a pact with the devil, promising him the soul of the first person to cross it. However, the inhabitants tricked the devil by having a stray dog cross first, infuriating the devil who abandoned the bridge. Today, the bridge is a symbol of Dronero and offers a panoramic view of the town, representing an unmissable stop for those visiting the Maira Valley.

The Gardetta Pass, at over 2,400 meters above sea level in the Cottian Alps, connects the Vallone di Unerzio with the Meja-Gardetta plateau. If you are following the itinerary we recommend from Canosio, we suggest you reach the pass to admire the view and then return to the Gardetta refuge. The pass was a battle site during the First World War and the refuge itself is a construction of military origin, renovated about forty years ago, today it welcomes you for a delicious restorative break.
