Immersed in the High Val Nervia, Pigna boasts an historic centre rich in merit stretching among winding and picturesque streets and can be admired beginning from Piazza Castello, the highest point in the town, upon which the exclusive palaces with slate doors face, and passing through Piazza Umberto I covered by the fifteenth-century characteristic loggia.
The frescos of Canavesio in the little church of S. Bernard and the grandiose ruins of the church of S. Thomas downstream from the town can be viewed in they full splendour. A change of direction brings us to Buggio, a little pastoral and rural centre, culminating in the spectacular central square.
