カンディア・カナヴェーゼのおすすめMTBライド

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 nice gully to learn how to exploit the curves

Nice sign, dedicated exclusively to those who ride bikes

The castle is beautiful but not open to visitors. The view from the park in the square in front of the nearby church is beautiful...

View from the park on the Dora river, on the dam and on the surrounding villages: Villareggia - Cigliano - Saluggia and on clear days up to the Monferrato hills

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