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.

The wet meadow This wet meadow, located in a xerothermic area, i.e. a dry microclimate, is of great ecological and biological importance: a small jewel to be protected. Important for Lepidoptera (butterflies), for birds, including the characteristic nightjar, a nocturnal insectivore, and for mammals. But it is of particular value for the numerous ponds present in it, a perfect example of non-anthropic wetlands in Piedmont. The ponds are used for the reproduction of 8 species of amphibians, 3 of which are covered by the Habitats Directive. Remarkable and rare is the simultaneous presence of the three Piedmontese newt species, the fascinating great crested newt, the lesser spotted newt and the colourful alpine water newt. The reproductive presence of the Dalmatian frog and the tree frog is also important. The aim of the Natura Invisibile association is to protect this biotope of great naturalistic value and increase its potential through the creation of numerous ponds and pools, transforming the meadow into one of the most important wetlands in the region. We invite users to also enjoy the extraordinary landscape power of the place, a perfect example of the fusion of Mediterranean and Alpine micro-habitats.

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

Beautiful work that can be found along the Corona Verde route after Robassomero, but on the other bank of the Stura river
