シリオ湖のおすすめランニングルート

It is a unique place of its kind. In a rather small and circumscribed area 2 steps from the Montalto lake (also called "Rabbit" lake) there is an area with a very dark soil composed of water, peat, earth and medium-sized trees. Especially when the ground is wet or it has rained previously if you jump on the surface, it moves creating small waves making the surrounding trees dance. A real show! You can reach the dancing lands from 2 different dirt tracks. For those with good technical skills the entry or exit paths in both directions are also fun to pedal.

Regardless of whether you reach the Serra di Ivrea or not, even wandering around these lakes, taking advantage of the good signage present, pays off! There is a nice variety of environments and paths, from single track to dirt road, ending on cobblestone sections, never too banal, especially in the wet... the lake environments are beautiful, given that most of these lakes are not very urbanized, the stilt houses rebuilt on the shore of Lake Pistono are very beautiful, they certainly deserve a stop. Places also suitable for children, given that in the lake area the differences in altitude are very modest... just watch out for hikers, because the paths are open to everyone!

In this beautiful peat bog in Montaldo Dora there is a very particular natural phenomenon, which gives the place its name. The Terre Ballerine are in fact called this way because of the particular consistency of the ground, which makes those who walk on it feel like they are walking on a mattress.

Bring mosquito repellent.

Equipped area of Andrate, with tables, fountain and barbecue. In the park there is an exhibition of objects for working iron, typical in the area since ancient times. Of particular interest is a water forge with characteristic stone hammers dating back to the first half of the 1700s.

Croce Serra is a town in Andrate located on the ridge of the Serra d'Ivrea, a glacial moraine that separates the Ivrea plain from the Aosta valley. Here is Castello Rubino, a historic residence of Biella industrialists built in the 1920s with towers, loggias and battlements.

The Oca Pass is a pass on the Serra di Ivrea ridge, a glacial moraine that extends between the Canavese and Biella areas. The pass can be reached from various paths that cross woods, lakes and historical sites such as the Torre della Bastia and the Ciucarun.

Erratic boulder of the Serra di Ivrea, a large block of rock transported by a glacial movement. There is also an information panel to find out more.
