MONTE ROCCERÉ
Mount Rocceré is located on the watershed between the Varaita Valley and the Maira Valley, on the border between Melle and Roccabruna. A metal cross stands atop its peak. The surrounding area is known for numerous indentations in the rock, once believed to be protohistoric cup marks. However, recent studies by the Superintendency and the University of Genoa have revealed that these are actually “gnammas”—natural cavities caused by erosion typical of periglacial mountain areas—which differ in shape and origin from true cup marks.
Rocca la Meja
Rocca la Meja (2,831 m) is an imposing mountain in the Cottian Alps, located in the upper Maira Valley, in the municipality of Canosio. It rises above the Gardetta, Margherina, and Bandia plateaus, distinguished by its sharp rocky ridge formed of vertically stratified dolomitic limestone. Its pyramidal profile is clearly visible from both the south and the north. The standard ascent route follows the south face and requires mountaineering skills. From the summit, one can enjoy a sweeping panorama of the Western Alps.
Dronero
Dronero, a charming Piedmontese town with 7,029 inhabitants, sits on a rocky spur at the entrance to the Maira Valley. Inhabited since ancient times by Celto-Ligurian tribes, it was caught up in wars and various periods of rule until it came under Savoyard rule. In 1749, it was granted city status. Famous for the Devil’s Bridge, it still preserves ancient walls and a charming historic center. Awarded the Medal of Military Valor, Dronero boasts a rich cultural heritage and a vibrant history of craftsmanship, industry, and the partisan movement—a symbol of courage and identity.
The Maira Valley
The Maira Valley, in the province of Cuneo, is a picturesque Alpine valley traversed by the Maira Stream. About 45 km long, it stretches from east to west between imposing mountain ranges, bordering France and the Po Valley. Rich in side valleys, limestone plateaus such as the Gardetta, and spectacular peaks like the Brec de Chambeyron, it offers breathtaking landscapes. Its geological diversity and varied flora make it an ideal destination for hiking, nature, and tranquility.
