How to get there : Coming from Genoa or Milan: exit at Masone (A26) and go left to Campo Ligure and Roussillon, then turn left and follow the signs to Urbe - Tiglieto - Sassello.Con good weather advice a particularly scenic route : exit at the same toll, but turn right to Masone. Continuing on the main road you get to the Turchino pass where you have to proceed along the Faiallo pass (SP73). In both cases from the highway takes about 30/40 minutes.For those arriving from Genoa-Ventimiglia: exit at Albisola, turn left towards Redwing, then follow the signs to Urbe.

Visits : There are no time limits or no ticket to pay for any reason.

Notes : Are passable, even in winter (attention to the fog!) With snowshoes, many excellent hiking trails to meet the photographic subjects above elencati.Consiglio strongly to try different restaurants rather cheap and rich in typical products and "zero miles".
