About

A 65 km spiritual route through the Piedmont region. From Cerialdo to Vinadio, four stages of rolling hills and rugged paths await.

The scent of wild rosemary fills the air as you pass historic chapels and churches, each a testament to the rich heritage of Sant'Anna. With an elevation gain of 4,643 m, this journey challenges and rewards.

Cuneo and Vinadio mark key waypoints, while the route remains accessible year-round, perfect for beginners. April to June and September to October are ideal months to walk this path of reflection.
