The point of arrival is Pinerolo, touching first the Sanctuary of Montebruno (in Garzigliana) and then Macello with its imposing castle.

From the Casaforte degli Acaja in Cavour take Via Roma, then turn right into Via Vigone, pass in front of the schools and then take Via Nuova, which passes by Babano parallel to the provincial road, then Via del Boschetto to the left, reaching the provincial road in the Case Nuove region.
Afterwards the track returns to the main road again and, with a short diversions of a few minutes, you can reach the Sanctuary of Montebruno
Then retracing your steps, take Via Umberto I and continue in the direction of Garzigliana, a small village surrounded by wheat fields. Here you will also find a water distributor where you can refill your water bottles. After leaving the village, turn right towards Macello, which will be the next destination. We face a short climb that leads to the bridge that crosses the Chisone stream and, with a bit of luck, it is possible to observe birdlife here.
At Macello, a stop in the village is suggested, to admire the castle.
We then reach the hamlet of Baudenasca and, soon, Park and Villa Il TorrioneA historic residence of great artistic value, it is surrounded by a large Italian garden with centuries-old trees and a fine collection of hydrangeas.
Once past the flyover, you are already in Pinerolo and you are almost on the home straight: you leave the main road to turn onto Via Achille Midana and skirt the verdant park, turning right at the end of the street. Take Corso Torino and continue towards the centre.
A diversion to the right into Via Ernesto Bosio takes you to the train station and bus terminus (to/from Turin and the valleys).
