The former horse riding track Galoppatoio Militare del Parco del Meisino is an area with a significant naturalistic value (Special Protection Area: Meisino Po-Stura confluence) where the European protection rules of Natura 2000 network are applied. The state gradually abandoned this property and finally transferred it to Città di Torino in 2011 in very poor conditions. The redevelopment of the area envisages the restoration of the inner roads and the connection with the existing cycle lane in Meisino Park, the opening of the entrances of the old fencing, the removal of unsafe crumbling light wooden structures linked to the previous use of this site for horse training.
