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!

Dam clearly visible from the bridge that crosses the Dora Baltea, on the road that connects Mazzé and Villareggia

A road with little traffic that connects Candia and Vische to the north of the lake

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

Hill to cross the West Moraine of the Balteo glacier, a short, not particularly challenging ramp coming from Montalenghe, despite the high-sounding sign

erbaluce vines of Caluso

Very beautiful landscapes. Climbs with significant gradients.
