Description of the route

From the locality called Le Balmas, take the flat mule track towards Toffo. In the first part of the itinerary, you can see the route of the Gaules Road, with the typical furrows of the Roman roads clearly visible. The itinerary, which corresponds to that of the Via Francigena, always continues flat among the vineyards. Along the whole route, the panorama on the plain, on the characteristic terraces and on the slope of the envers is remarkable. It is also possible to continue to Vignola in order to admire a sundial from 1815, painted on an old house next to the village fountain and you can choose to continue to the Le Petit-Hoel village. On the way back, you have a nice glance on the castle of Saint-Germain, on the built-up area of the village and on the hydroelectric power station.
