The Torion path winds along the cultivated plain of the Rio Borbore and leads to the impervious slopes of a coppice wood: between chestnut and downy oaks you can admire the castles and rural churches of the Roero that overlook the Tanaro. The vineyards clinging to the ridges give way to the Torion, the curious hexagonal building bombed during the Second World War which towers from the top of the "Castellero" hill and which gives the path its name.

We recommend to provide you the map of the trail you are going to walk, to equip you with hiking shoes suitable for dirt and, eventually, with trekking poles.
In spring/summer is better to have water with you and some energizing food.
Please consult meteorological websites before leaving, and contact the Ecomuseum office or visite our website to verify the trails conditions.
For people allergic to insects bites or pollens is advised to have with you medicinal products to prevent inhalings or bites.
Before leaving, tell someone your destination or the trail you want to walk, in order to simplify first aid assistance in case of necessity.
