The Sacra di San Michele is an abbey perched on the summit of Mount Pirchiriano. From the 12th to the 15th century it experienced its best period becoming one of the main centers of Benedictine spirituality in Italy. Today it can be visited and, after climbing the 243 steps, from its summit you can enjoy a splendid view of the valley.

The Magnesite Quarries The area of ​​the Magnesite Quarries within the ZSC, located on the north-eastern slopes of Monte Musinè and near Moncalvo, had historical importance in the industrial sector. The extraction of magnesite, a crystalline mineral obtained by the modification of ultramafic rocks by water, took on the characteristics of an industrial activity from the mid-19th century. In more ancient times, the mineral was used for the construction of the floors of the Villa Rustica (Roman Villa) of the Pian. In 1875, two entrepreneurs from Pinerolo intervened and started a stable work activity in the quarries, which gave them a sufficient income. The excavation area was expanded in 1880 to make the most of the increased demand for minerals. In particular, magnesite was used in the production of common porcelain and as a refractory material in furnace linings. The activity remained profitable until the outbreak of the Second World War, which led to the abandonment of the mine. Currently, the area is important from a hiking point of view. In fact, it offers a route of scenic and historical interest and is visited by geologists and hikers.

Very suggestive place, you can also get there with a MTB taking into account a bit of portage on the last stretch.

Excellent for a stop, to decide which route to take.

Exceptional panoramic point over Turin, one of the most recognized symbols of Piedmont
