Parco naturale della Collina di Superga

The natural reserve encompasses 750 hectares of hills featuring oak forests, chestnut groves, and diverse Mediterranean plant species near Turin's urban area.

The establishment of this protected area in 1991 marked a turning point in preserving natural landscapes that remained unchanged despite Turin's expansion.

The park contains numerous trails where local residents participate in outdoor activities while learning about native flora and fauna through educational programs.

Visitors can access multiple hiking paths, observation points, and recreational areas through designated entrances in Baldissero Torinese and Pino Torinese.

The geological composition includes 40-million-year-old sedimentary rocks formed from oceanic deposits during the Alpine chain formation period.
