A magical autumn on the Roero hills
An unmissable autumn excursion in the places where history has left its mark
Let yourself be guided to the discovery of the Wonders on the hills that enclose artistic and landscape jewels.
An unmissable autumn excursion in the places where history has left its mark: wonderful landscapes, magical and fairytale atmospheres on the most beautiful and panoramic hills of Roero.
The route
The loop we propose develops on the hills that embrace a wide sector of the Roero territory and, in part, face the specular hills of the Langa.
Starting from the village of Santa Vittoria, characterized by the mass of the tower, an ancient bulwark in defense of the territory, we will cross the hills affected in the past by the presence of important centers of Roman origin.
We will walk the “Path of Happiness” and reach Monticello Villa for the lunch break, the ancient and delightful medieval village dominated by the medieval castle of the Roero Counts.
Numerous panoramic points will offer the cue to fully capture the beauty of the landscape and admire the many small villages perched on the nervous hills of Roero.
We will then return to the cars in the afternoon, following a loop of high landscape value.
Terre Alte proposes:
a walk under the tower of Santa Vittoria to enjoy the view over the hills that dominate the course of the Tanaro river
the visit to the oratory of the Confraternita di San Francesco (a narrating voice will lead you to the discovery of a magnificent and extensive cycle of frescoes)
This excursion is recommended for cheerful people, groups of friends, families with children from 7 years old and up (used to walking), singles, couples… and to all those who wish to spend a Saturday in the open air, in good company and admire wonderful views.
