Cammino dei fossili

The Fossils Trail - Leg 5

Going further, take a narrow road on the right, and after less than 1 km you’ll get to the remarkable Romanesque church of Sant'Andrea di Casaglio. Note the distinctive exterior rendering of the church, rich in fossil inlays.

Keep riding and turn left towards the wash house, then follow the path along the valley where you can admire the beautiful village of Cerreto d’Asti. Continue until you reach the road and after a short distance, you can stop in the large square in Cerreto.

The village is known as an artistic hamlet due to the works painted on the facades of the buildings and it is definitely worth a visit.
