Crest Slope of the Erratic Boulders

Highlight • Natural Monument

This section of the path of the Erratic Rocks leaves the dirt road that runs along the moraine to the South West and climbs towards the ridge. Along the way you can admire 4 large boulders. There are also two benches for those who want to stop and enjoy the silence and the view, pleasant even in the middle of winter when the sun is shining, thanks to the good exposure and the heat reflected by the rock. At the top you can go down the opposite side along the marked path and reach the dirt road on the north east side of the moraine, or you can return to Vialfré on the ridge, along the unmarked path, but very evident due to the frequent passage of motorcycles and bicycles .

Romanesque Church of San Pietro

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of San Pietro is the church of the cemetery of Vialfrè of which a beautiful Romanesque bell tower is visible with a large single-lancet window and a double-lancet window, probably built by those who erected the bell tower of the Fruttuaria and of S. Stefano di Ivrea. This bell tower of the 12th century is a further testimony of the importance of Vialfrè in the medieval period. It is the bell tower of the ancient parish church dedicated to San Pietro. The main building is 12 steps long and 6 steps wide and has two altars.
