Various information
The area where Fuori Porta d’Azeglio is located is a still-authentic corner of Piedmont, situated in the upper Canavese region, at the border between the provinces of Turin and Biella. We are in Azeglio, a small medieval village overlooking the western shore of Lake Viverone, in a protected area that has preserved its natural balance. Unlike the eastern shore of the lake, which is more touristy and urbanized, this side is enveloped in greenery and provides a tranquil landscape dominated by woods, fields, and morainic hills.
The residence is set within the context of the Ivrea Morainic Amphitheater, the largest in Europe, a millennia-old geological formation of extraordinary beauty and environmental significance. This unique landscape was formed by the melting of Alpine glaciers and now features a harmonious succession of gentle elevations, with a variety of natural habitats that support rich biodiversity. It is the perfect place for those seeking experiences close to nature, including scenic walks, cycling tours, and horseback riding paths.
Lake Viverone itself is a gem nestled among the hills, surrounded by reeds, quiet trails, and glimpses of water that reflect the sky in every season. Near the facility, one can observe waterfowl, visit historic vineyards, and discover rural corners that have maintained the slow rhythms of country life.
The location is also strategic for those wishing to explore the surroundings: in less than an hour, you can reach Ivrea, a UNESCO World Heritage city known for its industrial architecture, Biella with its historic wool mills and spiritual trails, or the initial valleys of Aosta Valley. Additionally, there are the castles of Canavese, historic villages, and local products from a cuisine deeply rooted in peasant tradition. This is an area where nature, history, and hospitality blend into a rare and precious balance.
