Parco della fascia fluviale del Po - tratto Cuneese

From the plain, its silhouette is unmistakable: Monviso, with its 3,841m of height, stands out against the horizon of the Cottian Alps, offering a panorama of extraordinary beauty. The river Po springs from the waters coming from the glaciers of Monviso, at 2,020m, in a basin of glacial origins at Pian del Re. "Storia di montagne e di uomini" is a small volume collecting, in about twenty pages, information on nature and historical curiosities about the longest Italian river, from its spring and along its course in the plain of Cuneese area. The river Po gives origin to complex ecosystems housing a great variety of animal and vegetable organisms. This pocket guidebook you can bring with you during your tours offers an interesting and flowing reading to discover and above all respect protected natural environments and safeguard areas, sometimes endangered by the negligence of tourists.
