The Monferrato area was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2014, under the name "Wine-growing landscapes of Piedmont Langhe-Roero and Monferrato."
From the parking lot on Via Circonvallazione, take the small road downhill (towards Palude – Parese). After a short stretch on asphalt, continue on a dirt road, staying halfway up the hill among woods, vineyards, and hazelnut groves, until you reach a small asphalt road, where you turn left, following the CAI 713 trail sign.
Shortly after, you'll find a small hill next to the road, on which stands the beautiful 12th-century church of San Quirico, where a stop is recommended. Continue your hike through beautiful vineyards and wooded areas until you reach a crossroads in Regione Crosietta, where you'll take the descent on the left and then the road on the right that leads through the fields.
Follow The valley road, which stretches through fields and meadows, until you reach a fork, where you turn left. Among the tall grass and bushes, you can still see the so-called "bolli," small round pits that were dug in the ground to soak the hemp plants grown in the area.
Continue straight on the valley road until you reach the asphalt road, turning left (CAI trail sign 713A). On the right, a short distance away, you can see the remains of the old Sulphur Spring, where locals would gather in the past century to spend a few hours in good company.
Follow the asphalt for a few hundred meters and then take the dirt road on the right that quickly reaches the edge of the woods. From here, go up the road that runs alongside the woods and Reach the ridge, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the village of Treville.
After passing some vineyards, follow the provincial road for a few meters and then take the small road that branches off to the left and winds along the hillside. After passing the Cascina Sortina farmhouse, you'll reach the main road, where you must turn left to enter the village of Treville.
Follow Via Roma and then take the ramp that quickly takes you to the parish church, dedicated to Saint Ambrose. From the small square in front, you can enjoy a splendid view of the surrounding area, with the villages of Monferrato rising up among the woods and vineyards, and, on clear days, you can even make out the Alpine range that encircles our region.
