    Tips

    Instead of taking a walk in the parks always in plain mode, why not hop up the hills? Near Chivasso above San. Genesio ex Terme Sulfurea, there is Castagneto Po; what can I say full of chestnut trees, oaks .... The simple silent route during the week, 1 hour of tranquility a nice circular tour, where in the periods of spontaneous herbs you can collect along the path.

    Leave the car in the square in front of the church, go along via Italia to go up on the asphalted part, always keep left and after two or three breathtaking views on the right of the Alpine chain, the path starts. Arriving at Bric, 583 sml, a panoramic place where in winter when there is good seeing with binoculars you can see a beautiful slice of the Alpine arch, in this period the trees cut the panorama; immediately go down until you reach a crossroads, where you take the left of the path, thus doing you go down into the village. Once in town, on the right, immediately after the church, relax at the bar.

    A very peaceful ride, a walk in nature.

      At the Bric there is also a panoramic viewpoint on the mountains with an illustrated map of the visible peaks

        Represented by a large cross and a plaque indicating the altitude of 583 m, it is the highest point in the Vaj wood and in the eastern area of the Turin hill. There are many benches along the way, and especially at the summit. There is an iron stool to sit and admire the view, with billboards explaining the various mountains in sight. Unfortunately I found fog and I could not enjoy the landscape
