Ceronda

The Ceronda is a creek in the Metropolitan City of Turin that flows from higher mountain regions down to lower plains. The waterway passes through different landscapes and eventually joins another river, supplying water to several local areas along its course.

A canal system was created in the 19th century to harness water power for industries in the region. This development helped the area adapt economically as conditions changed in the broader territory.

The name comes from Latin words meaning clear water, and local Piedmontese dialects call it Sunder or Srunda. People use the banks for walks and recreation, connecting with the water landscape that shapes their surroundings.

The creek flows through a nature reserve with opportunities for walking and outdoor activities, especially during warmer months. Well-maintained paths nearby provide easy access and pleasant walks along the water.

The creek receives a tributary just before entering the flat landscape, which boosts its water flow. This meeting point is an important spot for the area's natural life, though many people pass by without noticing it.
