One could call the San Giorgio "island mountain". Due to its location, it is an excellent vantage point with 360 ° views. At the top is a small Romanesque church built before the year 1000. The Monte San Giorgio is a well-known starting point for paragliders and hang-gliders. The south side was almost completely depleted of its trees by a fire in 1999. The mountain is completely in the Natural Park "San Giorgio". Several hiking trails invite you to explore the summit.

Hiking

The mountain of the municipality of Piossasco, with a beautiful network of trails. For those who want to climb easily, or do it by bike, there is the wide dirt road that leads us to the climax. Beyond the cross with a panoramic view of the surrounding plain, continue for a few meters to the open space where you can lie down, enjoying a wider panorama
