Transcript of TRAILS NATURE CESANA TORINESE

On the ancient Roman road that went from the Po Valley to Gaul, at the foot of Monte Chaberton, the town of Cesana Torinese stands (1,354 m. above sea level). In a strategic position in the centre of the Alta Val Susa, it is the crossroads of the Vialattea ski area. A municipality rich in history made up of 11 alpine hamlets scattered at an altitude of up to 2,000 meters. The territory is served by hundreds of kilometres of paths and dirt roads of great value: from the ancient paths connecting the villages to roads and military mule tracks up to the magnificent network of paths that the forestry team of the Piedmont Region has restored or traced in recent years.

NOTE

The feasibility of the routes is estimated for the period May/October depending on the melting of the snow. Walking time: an average of 3 kilometres per hour has been assumed, adding 10 minutes for every 100 metres of positive difference in altitude.

GeoLoGicAL noTeSThe geological origins of Cesana Torinese are clearly visible in the area formed by the Chenaillet massif, Monti della Luna and Monte Chaberton, in the Upper Susa Valley, a paleo-geographical environment still partly recognizable and of great naturalistic value. In fact, in this area of the Alps unique rocks, fossils and minerals are preserved, geological beauties that bear witness to an ocean that has disappeared. Along the Chaberton hiking trails it is possible to see corals and fossil shells, in Val Thuras saline lagoons, on the Gondrand and in Valle della Ripa the abyssal plains with remains of planktonic mud, partly grey and calcareous or partly purplish, the latter formed by microscopic remains of siliceous organisms in Champlas and on Mount Crouzeau. Perfectly preserved, in the same area, is a fragment of an oceanic ridge dotted with volcanic cones and lava with vesicles that gushed out at a depth of thousands of meters on the seabed 150 million years ago and now raised to form the massif of Chenaillet - Monti della Luna. A characteristic element of Cesana Torinese is the green marble of Cesana, a dark green rock, serpentinite, which in the past was extracted intensively. Enthusiasts may visit the Garden of Rocks of Cesana Torinese, located along the state road 24 in the direction of Clavière. Through a circular path, the Garden allows to take a journey through geological time from the origins of the Earth until the appearance of man.

nATUrALiSTic FeATUreSThe territory of Cesana Torinese is a natural oasis for plants and animals. Near the village, on the left orographic slopes facing south, it is possible to find the Pinus Sylvestris, the cherry tree of Santa Lucia, the blackthorn, the wild pear and the rare Prunus brigantine, also called Marmotto, used in the past to extract a culinary oil from its seeds. On the slopes of the Chaberton, the Pinus Sylvestris is replaced by the Pinus mugo. On the warm slopes there are curious shrubs such as the snowy mespilus, the Rhamnus alpinus, the Rhamnus cathartica (its fruit was used to extract a purgative syrup, while the bark was used to produce a yellow colouring for dyeing cloth), the juniper (its blue berries were used to make a sort of mountain mustard) and the barberry with red fruits still used today for the preparation of excellent jams. In the areas closest to the village, the white-flowered Sorbus aucuparia with red berries grows, and the Laburnum alpinum with yellow flowers, once used to produce charcoal. On the grassy slopes near Bousson the largest and most precious of the European orchids grows: the Cypripedium calceolus or lady’s-slipper orchid. Almost everywhere in the territory, it is possible to see the larch that in Val Thuras alternates with the Pinus mugo Turra and in Bousson with the Pinus cembra. In spring the first mushrooms, honey fungus, and the morchella, also called Pungole,

appear and, in autumn the Suillus grevillei and the laricini. Different varieties of tits, thrushes, treecreepers, red and green woodpeckers and jays nest here. Going further up, it is possible to find the rhododendron, the gentian, from whose roots a bitter is obtained, and the genepy, used to make a liqueur. At these altitudes there are also blueberries and a particular mushroom shaped like a ball, called the Vescia. Moreover, it is not uncommon to come across marmots, chamois and some birds such as the northern wheatear, the common rock thrush, the white-winged snowfinch, the Alpine chough, the common raven, the short-toed snake eagle and the golden eagle.In the area of the Monti della Luna there are several lakes, which together with the stream Thuras and Ripa, represent the

natural habitat for the river trout, the marble trout and the European bullhead. The banks of these streams are covered with different varieties of willow, white alder, black and white poplar, elder and rare sea buckthorn present only along the Dora downstream of Cesana Torinese.

At the end of the village, continue along a dirt track until you reach two wooden signs. Turn your back to the signs and take the grassy path slightly uphill until you come to an alpine house and the Cappella degli Alpini. From here descend to the town of Cesana Torinese.

At the end of the inhabited area, continue along a dirt track until you reach the wooden sign indicating the Cava di Marmo Verde on the right. Continue uphill until you reach the three extraction sites. The mining activity took place from 1924-25 to 1970. Still today there are several cavities supported by pillars, numerous tools and machinery abandoned when the quarry was closed.

(The sixteenth-century parish church of Madonna delle Nevi and the mysterious Casa delle Lapidi are a must). Then keep to the left until you reach Rollieres. (Here you must see the nineteenth-century church of SS. Pietro e Paolo).

Ferragut continue straight until the end of the asphalt road and, after the last isolated barracks, turn left to follow a slightly uphill road with two wide bends. Cross the Rio Malnet, which is almost always dry during the summer season, and follow the small road that becomes narrower and narrower. Continue with a steep climb, cross the Rio di Cresta Nera and descend until you reach the Arpentin fountain. From here, a flat path leads to the village of Vernin in Fenils. (Where you must see the church of San Giuliano in Gothic style).

THE TRAILS

A natural bridge to Europe, the Susa Valley preserves an immense heritage of Alpine art and culture which, with the natural beauty of the mountains and the woods at the bottom of the valley, makes the territory extraordinary and unique. Located in the western part of the Piedmont Alps, the Susa Valley is the dividing element between the Cottian Alps and the Graian Alps, starting from the Moncenisio Pass. The valley is crossed by the Dora Riparia, where the waters of the Ripa di Cesana stream, the Piccola Dora di Claviere and the Dora di Bardonecchia rivers meet.
