After crossing the stream Ceronda at Violino bridge, the landscape divides between the woodlands of La Mandria plateau and the meadows of the plateau housing in the past the small village of Rubbianetta, today destroyed.
Evidences of the past are the ruins of Castellaccio and San Giuliano Church.
The small church, situated at the foot of the hill, was built in the 12th century and was linked to the estates of the Benedictine Abbey of San Giacomo di Stura.
