Turin and the Po

Turin and the Po includes two distinct areas, Valentino – Pô and Murazzi – confluences. Compare them before booking kayak, canoeing, Aviron, because access and conditions may differ. On the Po downstream of Ponte Vittorio Emanuele I to Turin’s boundary with San Mauro Torinese, non-motorised navigation is prohibited except for specifically authorised events. Upstream of the bridge, recreational navigation is limited to rowing craft. Navigation must stop during floods; no launching is allowed on days when the Pascolo dam is opened. The Murazzi–confluences area is therefore not an unrestricted route.
