The route was created in 2022 by the Unione Montana del Pinerolese and, besides being a nice itinerary for cycle tourists, was designed for multiple purposes.
On one hand, it allows the safe transhumance of numerous herds and flocks between the municipalities of the upper and lower Val Pellice, without impacting car traffic along provincial road no. 161 that runs through the valley; hence the name "Shepherds' Way" and the dedicated signage.
Secondly, the path provides an alternative route in case the provincial road is interrupted due to unforeseen events or natural disasters, isolating the upper valley.
The track, with partly unpaved and partly paved surface, travels quiet secondary roads and forest trails, in some parts descending to the watercourse, in others immersing into the woods of the slope or the meadows of the valley bottom. The route connects many of the cycle touring loops of the "UPSLOWTOUR" project.
