Camerana lies in a wide, sunny bowl. This is where the valley changes pace, widening out, giving way to meadows, forests, and streams. It is where the views open out and the landscape becomes more accessible.
It is in the upper Bormida valley, close to where Piedmont becomes Liguria. The biggest part of Camerana is the hamlet of Villa, dominated by the mediaeval tower dating back to 1268. Its presence is clear but restrained: it marks the origins of the town, but it is now immersed in a natural setting that now abounds.
The hamlet is clustered around the tower, fitting in with the surrounding agricultural landscape. Camerana is a great starting point for exploring the countryside, from the lush valley floors to the tree-covered hills. A varied and accessible environment, ideal for exploring on foot.
From the mediaeval tower to the waterways
Not far away, the Belbo Springs Nature Reserve, which also covers Montezemolo and Salicento, offers a landscape shaped by water. Water takes centre stage in these wetlands with lush vegetation and extensive hiking trails, exploring the history of this land.
