Man already frequented this area in prehistoric times, as testified by rock engravings, and over the centuries soldiers, merchants, shepherds and pilgrims have passed through its valleys. The southernmost edge of the Alpine chain, they divide the Piedmontese plain from the Nice coast and lie between two passes: Colle di Tenda and Colle della Maddalena. After the Savoy kings chose it as a royal hunting reserve, they established their summer residences in Sant\u2019Anna di Valdieri and San Giacomo di Entracque. Today, this enchanted paradise has countless alpine lakes and a unique treasure trove of biodiversity: bearded vultures, eagles, ibexes, marmots, chamois, deer and roe deer are all at home here and they coexist with the many hikers and mountaineers who love the nature of the Maritime Alps.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1443344885\">\n\t\t<a class=\"image-lightbox lightbox-gallery\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293-1024x585.jpg\">\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img width=\"1020\" height=\"583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293-1024x585.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293-1024x585.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293-768x438.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/img293.jpg 1165w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1443344885 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-50868459\" class=\"col medium-4 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"row row-collapse row-full-width\"  id=\"row-1498698712\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1782979540\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div id=\"text-3446701014\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n\n<h4>Parks and Nature Reserves in and around Cuneo<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-3446701014 {\n  line-height: 1.2;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"ux-menu stack stack-col justify-start ux-menu--divider-solid\">\n\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"ux-menu-link flex menu-item\">\n\t\t<a class=\"ux-menu-link__link flex\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/parchi-e-riserve-naturali-del-cuneese\/il-parco-fluviale-gesso-e-stura\/\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ux-menu-link__text\">\n\t\t\t\tGesso and Stura River Park\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<div class=\"ux-menu-link flex menu-item\">\n\t\t<a class=\"ux-menu-link__link flex\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ibikecuneo.com\/parchi-e-riserve-naturali-del-cuneese\/forma-il-fiume-a-piede-libero\/\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ux-menu-link__text\">\n\t\t\t\tf\u2019Orma.
