    At this point you will find one of the many panels that along all the paths of Morena Ovest talk about the geology of the Morainic Amphitheater of Ivrea. This one in particular explains how the glacier, retreating, creates particular terraces in the form of steps, called “Terrazzi di Kame”. Next to the panel you can see a very particular plant, which in the local dialect is called “Trumpa” or “Sumpa”. It is one of the many chestnut trees that were pollarded when the forest was used extensively in a subsistence economy.
