Along the Salt Road
The first part of the border trail between the Piedmont and Liguria that connects to the itinerary of the Via del Mare
Since ancient times the Val Curone occupies the place of the obligatory passage along one of the many salt roads and welcomes visitors in springtime with orderly pink expanses of peach blossoms characterising the low valley with its production of the peaches of Volpedo. Advancing along the valley the territory is marked by the linear geometrical forms of the vineyards, before all the Timorasso, autochthonous vine, which has been cultivated since time immemorial and which makes a full-bodied white wine with a complex aroma.
