Valle Stura di Demonte offers a quantity and quality of routes in uncontaminated nature of rare beauty: far from mass tourism, you will have the opportunity to agree on the most suitable path for you, from the day with the family with children, to the group of friends up to a guided educational course with the school. During the excursion, you can take advantage of the experience of nature guides to learn the names of flora and fauna, customs and habits of the local populations, the history of the area and above all the main safety rules to keep when going out into the mountains. Contact us – the Stura Valley awaits you!

Trekking in the mountains

Outdoor trekking, on foot, by bike or by e-bike, are constantly growing, as confirmed by various statistical and journalistic sources. But an increase in popularity does not always correspond to good news: mass tourism, often leads to negative consequences both for the individual and for the place and the communities visited. The local news often reports accidents in the mountains, from simple spraining (often due to unsuitable footwear) to, unfortunately, much more serious consequences, not to mention the consequences on the environment that the unwary tourist can cause, from littering to the indiscriminate collection of flowers and the disturbance of fauna with inappropriate behavior. For these reasons, we believe it is necessary to fight the commonplace view that “it is only a walk in the mountains”, which is causing so much damage to the local flora and fauna, in addition to increasing accidents in the mountains.

Nature and cycling tour guides

We believe that it is possible to experience the mountain in the best way by promoting through the right channels and in the right way the little-known professional figures of the nature and cycle tour guides (BU Reg. Piem. N.25). They can play a role in promoting the area, protection of flora and fauna, prevention of accidents in the mountains and educational activities that lead to a civil user who is respectful of the natural environments that are found in the Stura valley and similar locations.
