The itinerary starts from the main entrance of Parco della Mandria, offering views of both the Reggia di Venaria and the splendid mountain backdrop surrounding the park. Following the internal dirt roads (closed to traffic), winding through ancient forests and lush green meadows, one completely traverses the park, reaching the foot of the mountains.
Here, a highly scenic route leads to the entrance of the Valli di Lanzo, directly to the nature reserve of Ponte del Diavolo near Lanzo (To).
Lunch is arranged right by the banks of the Stura River, on the terrace of a typical trattoria overlooking the bridge, followed by a brief visit to the village of Lanzo.
The return journey on the other side of the Stura River is via the Corona Verde cycling path, always on traffic-free, flat roads that meander along the riverbed, amidst forests and clearings in direct contact with the riverbank, to fully appreciate its biodiversity features (Natura 2000 Network Area).
