The square is beautiful, with a lovely bell tower and well-preserved ancient walls behind it. Many works of art scattered around the various corners... worth seeing 🧐👍🏻

The five lakes of the moraine amphitheater are beautiful, each with its own unique characteristics. They're all worth exploring, preferably on foot, but some are also accessible by mountain bike. If you'd like to learn more about them, please contact me - Piero7

A place of strong devotion and a point of reference for the inhabitants of Cuceglio, built at the highest point of the town, where the medieval ricetto once stood, now no longer visible because the materials were reused for the construction of the Sanctuary. From here you can enjoy a beautiful view of the plain towards Turin, on the hills that close it to the south. On clear days you can see the Basilica of Superga, Monviso and the skyline up to the Maritime Alps.

Flat stretch, wide road towards Montanaro, for those who have just enough to unload a little power on the pedals. Little traffic but watch out for the few cars that whiz by quickly.

The Madonna Addolorata sanctuary is located on a hill about 400 meters above sea level that dominates the town of Cuceglio. Panoramic location!

Hill to cross the West Moraine of the Balteo glacier, a short, not particularly challenging ramp coming from Montalenghe, despite the high-sounding sign

Baroque style sanctuary, dating back to the mid-18th century, was built on the site of a Marian apparition and stands above the town of Cuceglio in a unique panoramic point from which it dominates the entire plain: it is a destination for pilgrimages in a natural setting of great value. Next to the sanctuary, there is a building that in past centuries housed a convent of monks and, in the recent past, a nursery school.
