Tips
The highest hill in Turin. Ideal destination for gravel lovers (but also reachable by racing bike or mtb). Countless roads lead to the top, some 500 meters in altitude above the city.

A popular destination for locals and tourists alike, somewhat removed from the – sometimes hectic – hustle and bustle of the megalopolis of Turin, the "Colle della Maddalena" is the highest peak in the surrounding area at almost 700 meters. However, the mountain is crowned not by a summit cross or other small sacred monument, but by a female figure from Roman mythology: "VICTORIA," the goddess of victory.
