How to arrive

The big bench in Borgofranco d’Ivrea does not have a dedicated car park in the immediate vicinity, but below I suggest a very large car park where you can leave your car.

Set your navigator by entering the following address “Place Germano Germanetti 7 – Borgofranco d’Ivrea” (click here for coordinates). As soon as you have parked your car, start the route towards the bench by following the gpx below.

The way

The route starts from the square in Borgofranco d’Ivrea and slowly begins to climb, immersing you in the villas and vineyards of the area.

The climb will be very steep, especially towards the end, but don’t worry because it is quite short.
Once at the top, leave the main road to take the dirt road. This is a private but accessible area.

It is precisely this land that houses the bench and here you can admire the wonders that nature has to offer, passing by the vineyards, vegetable gardens and flowers grown on the site.

At the end of this stretch you will immediately notice the green and blue bench of Borgofranco d’Ivrea. At the end of the small road, it is there waiting for you.
