Fornelli hamlet

Highlight • Religious Site

Semi-abandoned hamlet, it is slightly populated in summer but now there are more ruined houses than habitable ones. The closure of the bar/grocery store that was there until the 90s sealed its fate 😔

Chiaves

Highlight • Monument

Classic village, unfortunately with buildings not exactly "integrated", probably a remnant of the economic boom. The center is very beautiful though.

Talc Quarry

Highlight • Structure

The disused mine is open, it is possible to enter as far as the external light, very characteristic, arrives

San Pietro di Coassolo (TO)

Highlight • Settlement

Even if covered by the mist, you can see Lanzo reachable via a long and fast descent. Road surface in fair / good condition.

Colle Forcola

Mountain Pass

52.1 km

Between Balangero and Corio.

Highlight • Cycleway

A sort of plateau between the hairpin bends of Balangero and the Provincial road for Corio. A nice place to ride under the watchful eye of Mount Giovetto.
