Embark on a moderate hiking adventure along Trail 010, a 7.0-mile (11.3 km) route that guides you through the serene Turin hills. This trail offers a varied experience, from peaceful forest paths and wooden boardwalks to well-kept trails, culminating in a climb of 1544 feet (471 metres) to the iconic Victory Lighthouse. You'll discover the tranquil Cascata del Rio Sappone waterfall, where the Rio Sappone descends through lush greenery, and encounter traditional Turin fountains perfect for a refreshing break. The journey, typically completed in 3 hours and 49 minutes, provides a blend of natural beauty and gentle ascents, making it a rewarding experience for those seeking an escape into nature.
To begin your hike, head to the Fioccardo neighborhood, which is conveniently accessible via public transport, making it an ideal starting point for many. The trail is well-marked, ensuring a straightforward navigation experience as you ascend towards Colle della Maddalena. While the route is generally open year-round, checking local conditions is always a good idea, especially during adverse weather. There are no permits or fees required for this public trail, allowing for spontaneous planning. Consider starting your hike in the morning to enjoy cooler temperatures and ample daylight, especially if you plan to explore the Remembrance Park at the summit.
This trail is notable for its unique blend of natural beauty and historical significance, leading you to Turin's highest point where the grand Victory Lighthouse stands. The lighthouse, a large winged statue that illuminates at night and rotates 360 degrees, offers expansive views across the city and towards the majestic Alps. Surrounding the lighthouse is the Remembrance Park, a pine forest with numerous small trails, established in 1925 to commemorate Italy's victory in the First World War. This route perfectly encapsulates the magic of Turin's hills, where history, nature, and stunning vistas converge to create a memorable hiking experience.
