Descrizione

Starting from the hamlet of San Carlo di Tigliole, the crossroads between  Via dell'Acqua and  Via dei Santi, we proceed westwards along the ridge. In this way we cross a series of groups of isolated houses interspersed with large spaces occupied by forests. The route also offers numerous panoramic views of the surrounding valleys. The route skirts the village of Valperosa and continues up to Bricco Gallo, where we can stop in one of the accommodation activities in the area. We then continue along the various ridges of the hills, interspersing with some ups and downs, in the most scenic part of the route. In fact, we will cross large completely natural areas, without houses and characterized by dense vegetation. We arrive at the junction for Cantarana, variant 1A. We continue along the main stage, skirting the area of the spring fields. This area, in fact, is historically characterized by the strong presence of water becoming one of the main suppliers of drinking water in the province of Asti. We then continue towards the hamlet of Novarino and Serra di Balla, where there are some votive pillars of considerable importance for local worship. We then descend towards the valley, cross the SP19, and enter a large area used for cultivation, cross the Rio Stanavasso and walk along the road that leads to the ridge and, finally, near the town of Valfenera, the point of arrival of Stage 1. Valfenera is located on the border with the provinces of Cuneo and Turin. The archaeological finds testify how this territory was already settled in Roman times. Originally the village was located around the church of San Pietro and only later, due to defensive reasons, it moved to its current position. The property of Valfenera followed the destiny of many towns in the province of Asti, passing from family to family, until it returned to the possessions of the Savoy.
