It is a former military road whose construction works ended around 1904. Already at the end of the 19th century the Army began some fortification works on the borders of this side, which were then further reinforced with the works of the Vallo Alpino (some only designed, such as a driveway from the Pourrachet Hotel in Oulx to Croce SanGiuseppe and then towards the Fenils valley to join the Chaberton road) such as the Rocchette refuge and the G.a.F. bivouac. under the Desertes pass.
The dirt road starts from the SS.24 of Monginevro downhill, crosses the stone bridge over the Dora and then climbs up with a dozen daring hairpin bends and a development of about 5 km up to the ancient capital, also crossing the hamlet of Balbières.
