This itinerary begins with a guided tour of the Baroque and medieval historic center of Turin, then it moves on to the numerous parks in the Turin belt and the immediate surrounding area, the Po Park, the Pellerina Park, the famous Valentino Park, the Mandria Park, the Vallere Park, the Stupinigi Park, the Avigliana Lakes Park. Along the way there are many former Savoy residences including the Valentino Castle, the Stupinigi Hunting Lodge, the Venaria Royal Palace, but also curiosities such as the Devil's Bridge or small castles such as the Medieval Village in Turin or the Avigliana Castle, whose medieval historic center will leave you speechless. In Avigliana the overnight stay is directly on the lake. We will go along the cycle paths of the Valsusa, which is part of the Via Francigena, the Lanzo Valleys, and we will discover the history of the Waldensians in Val Chisone. Finally we will return to Turin following the beautiful cycle path from Pinerolo along the Dora river.
