THE VIA DEL SALE: FROM THE ALPS TO THE SEA
The Via del Sale: a dense network of paths that connects Limone Piemonte to the Ligurian sea. Characterized by white roads located at a high altitude where uncontaminated nature and breathtaking views come together. Perfect paths to be travelled by mountain bike or e-bike. The Alpine arc located between Piedmont, France and Liguria will be the backdrop for our rides. A rich vegetation, hosting ibex, chamois, marmots and military fortifications will characterise the panoramas we’ll see during the tour. At the end of this fantastic journey, the sea of the Ligurian Riviera awaits us and the opportunity to dive in for a nice regenerating dip.
GARELLI REFUGE
GARELLI REFUGE
The Garelli refuge is a charming stone structure with a very modern glass and metal extension reflecting the surrounding mountains. A not-to-be-missed hike in the heart of the Marguareis Natural Park amidst high altitude green pastures at the feet of the astonishing north face of the Marguareis, the highest peak in the Ligurian Alps.
SANCTUARY OF SAN MAGNO - CASTELMAGNO
SANCTUARY OF SAN MAGNO - CASTELMAGNO
In the upper Valle Grana, in an area formerly dedicated to the cult of Mars, stands the silhouette of the sanctuary of San Magno (1760 m), which was an almshouse for travellers in transit from the Grana valley to the Stura valley. The complex includes an 18-19th-century part and an older one. In the latter we can admire the fifteenth-century frescoes by Pietro da Saluzzo, featuring the evangelists and doctors of the Church, and those depicting the passion of Christ and the seven holy martyrs of the Theban Legion.
