The Monferrato offers charming walks, beautiful landscapes, a luxuriant vegetation with wonderful and often unexpected surprises. In each season, even winter, you can discover some charming aspects.
Camminare il Monferrato is an initiative suggesting visitors alternative itineraries with didactic information. These itineraries not only represent an opportunity to observe closely beautiful sites in the Park, but they also aim at protecting these old itineraries which time and neglect are canceling. The itineraries are very easy and suitable for whole families and schools. It is also possible to ride a mountain-bike along them. They allow tourists to discover uncontaminated areas, history, nature, and evidences of old traditions and legends. A puddle to collect water explains us that a vineyard was situated here in the past, maybe where now visitors can see perfumed brooms. In the thick of the wood once there was a house. Old apple-trees and some well ruins tell us about it. Visitors are going to find here this and much more by looking and listening to the sounds in the wood. Maybe the owl or the tawny owl which, unseen, are observing them with curiosity from a tree.
