The Guide to the Upper Po Valley (Piedmont) [author Chantal CROVI – 224 pages, format 14x21cm, 135 photos] is the third volume in the collection by the publisher ARTEZIN.
The publisher dedicates this to the alpine world of Italian Piedmont. This guide in French offers a cultural, historical, and contemporary approach to the upper Po Valley.
It invites readers to discover this exceptional valley world, nestled between Saluzzo and Queyras, and watched over by the mythical figure of one of the iconic mountains of the southwestern Alps: Mont Viso.
A valley that endlessly delights nature, history, and mountain enthusiasts with its suspended pastures, peaceful villages, refined pictorial art, and treasures of traditional alpine architecture.
This guide leads to all places where its beauty is born. The Guide to the Upper Po Valley (Piedmont) is the first guide to the upper Po Valley in French. This well-documented book (art – nature – culture – history – traditions), lavishly illustrated, is a wonderful tool for anyone wanting to know this territory, which has always been at the heart of exchanges between Provence, Dauphiné, and Piedmont.
The guide includes a significant practical section (accommodation, museums, festivals, gastronomy, nature, mountains) as well as the description of twenty-six trails.
