Chisola

The Chisola is a mountain stream in the Metropolitan City of Turin that originates in the Alps and flows through the Piedmont lowlands. It gathers water from several tributaries before joining the Po River.

The creek formed through natural processes in the Alps and became a vital resource for early settlements that established themselves along its banks. Its water system supported the region's growth over many centuries.

This waterway has shaped how people in the area farm their land and has become part of local outdoor traditions that connect communities to nature.

The creek bed is accessible at many points along its course where you can watch the water flow toward the plains below. Walking along its banks is easiest during warmer months when water levels stay more stable.

The creek carries water from high alpine sources that filters through limestone as it travels, giving it a remarkably clear appearance in its mountain sections. This pure water makes it visibly different from other lowland rivers.
