モンカリエリの湖・トップ6

A recently created wetland (late 2025) on what was once the Parpaglia farm's hemp maceration plant. A sign (unfortunately already defaced by a few deaf people) explains that the purpose is to provide a natural-like habitat for the amphibians, reptiles, and aquatic birds that once swarmed the park. Aside from its eco-educational purposes, it's a lovely pond, with benches and a bike park, nestled among fields and pastures, shaded by trees, and offering a beautiful view of Parpaglia Castle. A lovely place for a break, a great destination for a day trip.

Very nice circular route

A few steps from the historic center of Carmagnola there is a protected area of great naturalistic interest: La Lanca di San Michele, an ancient riverbed, now abandoned, which has been transformed into a beautiful wetland rich in flora and fauna typical of the river environment and the Bosco del Gerbasso where, thanks to valuable scientific work, a strip of the original Po Valley plain forest has been recreated. Inside there is a beach, picnic area, observation points and many other points of interest.

Nice compact path that passes between the two quarry lakes at the Po Morto. Pay attention to the roots.

Path that joins two stretches of dirt roads passing through the lakes of the Po Morto oxbow. It is a former agricultural track, and in many places the two tracks can still be seen. The surface is compact and quite good, just with a lot of protruding roots: all in all, it is better than many urban cycle paths. A racing bike might have some problems, but any other bike can get through it.
