The one ride I wanted to do last year, and it turned out to be EPIC.

The “Via Del Sale” (Upper Salt Road) is a spectacular unsealed former military road that connects the Piedmontese and French Alps to the Ligurian Sea. It winds its way along the mountainsides following the main Alpine watershed near the border between Italy and France, at altitudes between 1,800 and 2,100 metres, in a succession of Alpine crossings, bends and thrilling passes.
Part of the Torino Nice Rally, I decided to tackle it on the last opportunity of 2022, before the winter and snow came.

With very remote stretches, limited water, it made for a great ride

The, entirely unsealed road, connects Limone Piemonte, in the province of Cuneo, with Monesi di Triora. I rode an unoffical track by @flo.marco
Thanks for watching and make sure to put this ride on your To Do List!
