サルッジャの天然記念物・トップ7

A 150-year-old tree. It was there when we were born. Maybe it will be there when we die...

Lake Candia (in Piedmontese lagh ëd Candia), located in the municipality of Candia, in the Canavese area, about thirty kilometers from Turin, is the last highly natural lake basin in the Piedmontese Po Valley, before the mountain barrier represented by the Western Alps.

The area depicted in these images is located a short distance from the parking lot where it's best to leave your car and explore (on foot or by bike) the countless trails that surround the lake. This is one of the few truly accessible areas along the entire perimeter because, perhaps to protect the lake's fragile ecosystem, the trail that circles it is kept at a constant distance. In any case, aside from the lake, the entire surrounding rural area is worth a visit, still pleasantly unspoiled. A trip in autumn is highly recommended for the myriad colors of the vegetation. Both cyclists and walkers should be careful, as I didn't notice any distinction between trails reserved for mountain bikes and those reserved for pedestrians; many secondary paths have dead ends!

A photo on the park's pier is a must. Stunning view...

Special conservation area in the lower Vercelli plain, characterized by extensive rice fields. The fish farm, which was active for a few years at the end of the last century, was transformed by the Park Authority into a prestigious humid environment. Today the artificial basins and reservoirs, the dense hydrographic network of slow-flowing canals, the numerous springs and springs represent a significant biodiversity factor, hosting various marsh-type habitats and numerous rare and interesting species, in particular among the avifauna.

Lake located between Candia and Mazzè covering an area of about 1.5 sq km. It is located at the foot of the morainic hills and is part of the Natural Park of Lake Candia. Sparsely built in its surroundings, it offers a humid habitat suitable for the growth of almost 400 floral species.

Nice place is above all a nice park that is well kept and clean… getting there via the Via Francigena… difficult but not too much
