5 days in Turin Itinerary

A city of technology and industry, Turin is in northwestern Italy, a one-hour drive from the French border and slightly more than that from the Mediterranean Sea.

Escape the urban bustle at Parco Nazionale Gran Paradiso and Cervino Breuil-Cervinia Ski Area. Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: River Rafting & Tubing (in Morgex), Parco Naturale del Monte San Giorgio (in Piossasco) and Lake Orta (in Orta San Giulio). The adventure continues: get engrossed in the history at Museo Egizio, make a trip to Piazza Castello, examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, and contemplate the long history of Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone.
