Riserva Naturale Coturelle - Piccione

Nature Reserve

22.4 km

The name of this village derives from the dialectal term "vuturu", which means vulture and recalls the ancient presence of this bird of prey in the area. The village is among the oldest in the Gariglione Forests and was very much alive in the past, as evidenced by the schools, the post office and many other services still present.
