The 15 Most Amazing Peaks around San Colombano Belmonte

On Cima Mares there isn't much, apart from a cross and the repeaters, but the panorama is worth the effort to climb it, the view actually ranges from the Maritime Alps, which are very clearly distinguishable in conditions of good visibility, then moving your gaze to the right you encounter Monviso, a good part of the peaks of Cuneese and the lower Susa valley, because the upper part is screened by the silhouette of Monte Soglio, which forms the watershed between the Orco valley and the Lanzo valleys. To the right, overlooking the upper part of the valley towards Ceresole, you can admire the satellites of G. Paradiso and other minor peaks, which however almost all exceed 2500 meters and offer a grandiose spectacle.

Very panoramic, 360 degree view

Very beautiful panorama at the top, satisfying view, but the last 5 km of climb to get there.... very hard, average gradient above 10%, peaks above 15, on a path rather damaged by the rains of the last few months. Grooves, exposed rocks and sand... having my foot on the ground in many sections was inevitable for me, and starting up on those slopes isn't always easy. I climbed with a gravel bike but it's not a problem with the vehicle, tires or gears... if you like hiking with a bike or cycle mountaineering then it's ok. Otherwise 2 hours on foot and you'll get there anyway

Very panoramic summit with large 360 view, it's worth it

To reach the 2,231 meters of altitude of Punta Quinseina Sud, also known as Punta Quinseina di Santa Elisabetta, you follow a beautiful path which, although not particularly difficult, has quite steep sections, sometimes on stony ground, and starts from Pian del Lupo. If the mists allow it, the panorama from this point is extraordinary, ranging from the Canavese plain to the Alps. However, even more fascinating is the somewhat exposed path along the ridge that leads to the northern tip. Running along the ridge is an amazing experience!

The Mares peak is a mountain in the Graian Alps. Despite the modest altitude of 1,654 metres, it offers an extraordinary view, an authentic panoramic balcony over the Canavese plain, the mountains of the Orco and Soana Valleys, and the Serra Morenica, embracing Gran Paradiso, Levanne, the Monferrato hills, the Ligurian Apennines , the Maritime Alps and Monviso. This beautiful panoramic peak can be reached via easy paths from two sides: towards the east, the route is slightly steep, making the uphill run a little challenging but not impossible; towards the west, the path follows the rounded ridge without ever being too exposed. It's a great opportunity for an atmospheric ride.

Beautiful and enchanting place, relaxing views immersed in the nature of the Canavesi Mountains
