Giaveno

The landscape around Giaveno is a transition from the wooded Val Sangone to the foothills of the Cottian Alps, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. The Sangone stream gives the town its valley setting, while Turin lies on the plain to the east. Giaveno is associated with woodland products, particularly porcini mushrooms, celebrated during its annual Fiera del Fungo. Its compact centre and surrounding hamlets make it a useful base for understanding the quieter, mountain-facing side of the Turin metropolitan area.
