Between Nature and Wellbeing: from Cuneo to the Valdieri Spa by e-bike

Cycling along waterways towards the Terme di Valdieri, immersed in the scenery of the Maritime Alps: a journey dedicated to well-being and nature.

The itinerary winds for 100 km with a total difference in altitude of 1660 metres, starting from Cuneo and arriving at the spa of Sant'Anna di Valdieri. A beautiful journey to do in one or two days where water is the undisputed protagonist.

Starting from Piazza Galimberti, in the historic center of Cuneo, walk along Via Pascal and then turn left at the roundabout to continue towards Via Basse Sant'Anna. Once past the tracks, you pass the Stura di Demonte river and then enter the Gesso and Stura river park.

The itinerary follows the course of the Stura river towards Roccasparvera, a beautiful village with a medieval flavour.

From here we continue towards the Stura Valley, among woods and mountains, and we will begin to climb towards Gaiola.

After crossing the Stura di Demonte river, continue towards Via dei Boschi up to Borgo San Dalmazzo. From here you take Via Rivetta which, flanking the Bealera Nuova canal, rejoins Via Valdieri, from which you will have to continue along the Gesso Torrent and make a small climb up to Valdieri, a town in the Maritime Alps Park.

From here you can make a small detour towards Entracque, a mountain village dedicated to welcoming tourism from mountain enthusiasts, both in summer and winter and home to the Men and Wolves Wildlife Centre, where it is possible to climb up a watchtower of the Center and observe the wolves protected in the park enclosure

Once the diversion ring for Entracque is closed, you take the road back towards your destination, climbing up to 978 meters in Sant'Anna di Valdieri.

After about 6 kilometers you will arrive at the Terme Reali di Valdieri, natural springs of hot, sulphurous water with antioxidant, soothing and purifying properties.

Once you have finished your pampering at the spa, the return journey to Cuneo will be immersed in chestnut woods and naturalistic areas, including the Grotte del Bandito reserve in Roaschia.
