On the occasion of the FAI Autumn Days, Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 October 2026, the FAI Delegation of Novara and the Ovest Ticino Group organize two guided tours in Galliate, dedicated to the relationship between water, history and nature in the Parco del Ticino. You can enter the Hydroelectric Power Plant alle Voltri, managed by the Società Idroelettrica Ticinese, which in 2026 celebrates 100 years since the inauguration of the electro-hydraulic power plant of Novara. The tours are led by the Apprendisti Ciceroni of the I.S. Biagio Pascal in Romentino. The route also includes a nature walk along the river to the area of the Olandi power plant, to observe the river ecosystem and the hydraulic works that regulate its waters up close.
