Beautiful ridge itinerary that moves along the watershed between the Tanaro and valle Mongiays, offering unexpected panoramic views both toward Liguria (especially near Prato Rotondo) and toward the valleys of Monregalese and its plain.
Particularly enjoyable, in this regard, are the sections in Battifollo near the scenic church of Sant'Anna and close to the chapel of San Giovanni, which features 15th- and 16th-century frescoes.
The route, mostly downhill, is mostly on a dirt road and laps several chestnut groves, among others, before flowing into Ceva, custodian of noteworthy artistic peculiarities such as the Cathedral and the Marenco Theater.
