Golferenzo is a village well worth the climb: small, well-kept, and surrounded by the hills of the Tidone Valley and the Alta Val Versa. Getting there by bike means pedaling through vineyards, along scenic roads, and with views that will make all your efforts worthwhile. If you enjoy cycling through nature and discovering authentic villages, make a note of this: it's a tour worth doing at least once.

On 14-11-2024 I passed through the stretch, Molino del Gobbo and Molino Rizzo, the path was cleared from the extraordinary fall of trees. I did not find objects, trees that obstructed the passage,

The Tidone trail is a hiking trail almost 70 kilometers long. At this point, between Pianello and Nibbiano, the course of the river is easily observable. The Tidone trail is also managed by an association that aims to help people discover the beauty of these valleys: https://sentierodeltidone.eu.

This stretch of the road connecting the hamlets of Torrone and Pizzofreddo is very scenic, as it runs along a ridge offering open views of the Versa Valley on one side and the Tidone Valley on the other.
