Between the narrow rock walls flows the stream that descends to the valley. There is a path that goes up to go and see them higher up

This is a canyon with a small stream flowing through it. It is a particularly suggestive place, after which you find yourself in a sort of amphitheater surrounded by vertical walls, where you can admire the spectacle of nature. A helmet is recommended, due to the possible falling rocks from above.

A beautiful valley, which leads to the Colle della Fauniera.

The climb to Colle della Fauniera from Demonte (Stura valley) goes up the Val d'Arma, a beautiful valley that gains height until reaching Colle Valcavera. This section shows the Val d'Arma in all its splendour, when it finally opens up, leaving the trees behind and the pastures and rocks appearing. Any point is good for taking a spectacular panoramic photo of the valley and its mountains. However, the higher up, the better the photo. So... it's time to climb, suffer and enjoy.

I have done this stretch uphill and downhill... and the perspective is completely different. The first time I crossed it was on my way up to Fauniera from Demonte. I remember it with great emotion. Going up to Fauniera after having climbed Colle della Lombarda in Italy was very hard. Also the weather was not on my side because during the whole climb it was unbearably hot and just as I reached the top a thunderstorm and very strong hail started. I crossed this stretch of rocks in thick fog but knowing that I was going through a corridor of rocks. I remember being amazed and very excited because I was about to reach the top of Fauniera. The second time I crossed it was downhill on a splendid summer day with blue sky and heat. The views of the road through the rocks are impressive. Now it is only up to you to visit it for the first time... or again. I want to go back... and I hope to do it by bike.

In an area like this you don’t want to stop cycling

A beautiful Vinadio valley from where many beautiful walks start. Walking along the dirt road that runs alongside the stream, starting from the no-traffic area, you arrive at the Malinvern refuge.
