    Il Bosco delle Navette in estate
    Photo: Credits_Archivio Parco del Marguerais
It is the southernmost larch forest of the Italian Alps, covering approximately 1,000 hectares

Un piccolo paradiso per galli forcelli e animali selvatici: il Bosco delle Navette è un tappeto di mirtilli e rododendri all’ombra di uno dei boschi di larice più belli ed estesi delle Alpi Occidentali e deve il suo nome al fatto che i suoi alberi un tempo erano utilizzati per costruire barche e navi nella vicina costa ligure. Oggi la zona fa parte del Parco Naturale Marguerais.
