Hundred meters long sacred path, or "Strada Megalitica,” on the southern slopes of Monte Beigua, in front of the Bric Greppino Hill. The walls on the side of the hill look like typical celtic rampart walls. Two big rocks, close to a fountain, 1.65 meters apart act as a gate of sorts at the lower level, while at the upper level there are remains of a wide cromlech. Probably part of a sanctuary together with the Ceresa 1 and 2 Menhir.
