Celebrating World Environment Day

Also this year to celebrate World Environment Day which takes place on Wednesday 5 June, the Municipality of Avigliana is implementing various initiatives:

A night bike ride will take place on June 5th starting from 8.30pm with meeting at the station, in Piazzale Giorgio Gaber: it will also be an opportunity to remember World Bicycle Day which is celebrated on June 3rd and to officially inaugurate the new track Corso Torino cycle path, which now allows you to connect the two industrial areas of the city via the train station.
