Parco Naturale Orsiera Rocciavrè

Bussoleno (19 Km)

The Orsiera Rocciavrè Natural Park covers over 11,000 hectares over a large mountainous area that includes part of the upper Val Sangone and part of the ridge that separates the Susa Valley from Val Chisone, beyond to the special nature reserves of the horrids of Foresto and Chianocco. The landscape is characterized by numerous glacial lakes, slopes and ravines carved by water. In the Park it is possible to observe mammals typical of the Alpine habitat, such as chamois, deer and roe deer. Bird lovers will certainly not be disappointed by a visit: there are more than a hundred species. But the Orsiera Park does not only offer wildlife and beautiful landscapes: there are also numerous archaeological traces of the human presence dating back to the Neolithic period. Unlike many other mountain areas in Piedmont, much of this area has remained off the beaten path of mass tourism and still has an almost unspoiled natural habitat, where activity of man is limited to agriculture, forestry and livestock breeding.

Torre di Chianocco

Chianocco (18 Km)

The Tower of Chianocco, also known by the name the Casaforte di Chianocco, was built in the twelfth century.

Castello del Conte Verde

Castello del Conte Verde

Condove (22 Km)

On a hill at the entrance of the Valle di Susa, between Mount Pirchiriano and Caprasio, are the remains of a castle. The oldest news not of the building but of a local defensive system would seem to be linked to the clash between the Franks and the Lombards, which took place at the Locks: probably also the relief of the castellazzo was provided of defensive structures that were part of it. Starting from the 13th century, the Castrum Capriarum was the center of one of the abbey Castellanies of San Giusto di Susa and was also the seat of court and prison. For this reason, it normally housed a small number of soldiers.

Museo archeologico dell'Abbazia

Novalesa (21 Km)

In the millennial abbey of Novalesa since 2009, the Archaeological Museum exhibits most of the finds that emerged from the excavation campaigns conducted from 1978 to today, as well as two sections dedicated to monastic history and to restoration of the book. The first room is dedicated to the restoration of the book, art still practiced today in the laboratory attached to the abbey, and illustrates the types of writer supports, the evolution of writing, the techniques of engraving and press, and restoration. The same room also houses the section dedicated to the history of monasticism and monastic life. In the third room there is the largest number of artifacts, grouped according to chronology: fragments of statues, funeral inscriptions, parts of sarcophagi and architectural elements, everyday objects and fragments of fresco pictorial decorations assigned to the intervention of Tolosan Anthoyne de Lhonye.

Ecomuseo Terre al Confine

Moncenisio (21 Km)

The small town of Moncenisio hosts at the ancient “common house” the Ecomuseum Terre at the Border, which illustrates the daily life and the environment of border territories such as those of the Val Cenischia and the Cenischia crossing Moncenisio. The ecomuseal route includes, in addition to the exhibition room, also an external itinerary that touches the common oven, the sink, the mill, the sundials painted on the facades of the huts. In addition, in the area of the Great Lake, some panels illustrate the history of the Fell Railway, which at the end of the nineteenth century connected Susa to St. Michel de Maurienne through the Moncenisio pass.
