Sanctuary of Madonna del Colletto

Highlight • Religious Site

At the end of a not long but rather hard climb in the slopes, the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Colletto has been recently renovated and enhanced and every Sunday, especially in summer, it is not uncommon to find many people here, for religious celebrations or not.

Cima Pissousa

Highlight • Summit

Very panoramic peak with a 360 ° view of Valle Gesso, Valle Stura, Cuneo and surrounding areas. The last meters before reaching the Pissousa peak require some experience being on rocky terrain (the ascent is therefore not recommended for beginners and / or children).
