ラロッジアの湖・トップ4

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.

A beautiful lake near La Loggia, not far from the Pò

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.

nice place for a picnic and relax in the open air
