Riserva Naturale Regionale Adelasia, Regional nature reserve in Cairo Montenotte, Italy.
The Adelasia Reserve spans 1,370 hectares of beech woodlands with Mediterranean flora, karst caves, and diverse water resources throughout the protected territory.
The Battle of Montenotte in 1796 took place within these lands, where French forces engaged Piedmont-Austrian troops in a decisive military encounter.
The reserve bears the name of Princess Adelasia, daughter of Emperor Otto I, who according to regional tales found shelter in these woods with her husband Aleramo.
Visitors can explore marked paths from the Cascina Miera center, with Trail 1 and Trail 2 leading through different sections of the natural environment.
The reserve contains old military trenches at Bric Tesoro, offering direct connections to regional conflicts from the late eighteenth century.
