View of the Avigliana Lakes from Mortera

Highlight • Viewpoint

Just before reaching the hamlet of Mortera, as you ascend, a small window opens up with a stunning view of the Avigliana lakes and the lower Susa Valley all the way to Turin. A good excuse for a break. A little further on, the hamlet—a few houses, with a water point—and a downhill stretch that will cause you to lose many of the meters you've gained.

View of Sacra di San Michele

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this panoramic point near the Basinatto village it is possible to observe the Sacra di San Michele in all its splendor. Perched on the summit of Mount Pirchiriano, the Sacra is one of the symbols of Piedmont and is located right at the beginning of the Susa valley. It is said that Umberto Eco drew inspiration from the Sacra di San Michele for the famous abbey in the novel "The Name of the Rose".
