Of all the roads that go up to Prunetto, this is undoubtedly the "gentlest" in terms of slope and graduality, perhaps slightly busier than the others but manageable even for those who are not too trained.

Cairo Montenotte is located almost at the head of the Bormida Valley, the starting point for reaching Lake Osiglia, the Melogno hill and, continuing towards Savona, the Cadibona hill. It is a beautiful town with a well-preserved historic center, dominated by a castle. By bike, if you continue towards Savona, it is advisable to cross the city center, to avoid getting stuck in the tunnel of the main road.
