Trail on the Maira

Highlight • Trail

Intermediate steps, but almost all easy. Recommended, pay attention to the season. Summer: Cobwebs, weeds, nettles and brambles. Winter: frozen sections.

September 13, 2025,Foresta delle Fiabe – Sentiero sul Maira giro ad anello con partenza da Savigliano

Up to the little mermaid, it's pretty clean, but if you want to continue, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND LONG PANTS AND LONG SLEEVES. …
