  A loop through the Lanzo Torinese valleys — Viù, Val d'Ala, Val Grande, Tesso, Malone, and Fandaglia — the route threads past ancient mule tracks, 16th-century stone bridges, and small hamlets like Pugnetto, Cresto, and Fornelli where time seems to stand still. Along the way it passes five parks and reserves, including the area around the Ponte del Diavolo and the Pugnetto caves, all set within the Piedmontese Graian Alps.
