The Po. Italy’s longest river runs from the northern slopes of Monviso to the Adriatic Sea near Venice. While swimming in the Po is NOT permitted, there are other activities that you can participate in during your summer visit. Perhaps flying over the Po is more your style.

For the second year, the folks at VerticalLifeTeam.it have brought Vola sul Po to the people of Turin. While I myself am not very adventurous, I had to admit, it looked like a lot of fun and if I WAS NOT in my delicate state, I would definitely try it!

As you can see from the photos below, not only is it safe but fun for the whole family!

If you happen to be in Turin before the end of the month, head on down to Piazza Vittorio Veneto and you’ll see the platform set up! Otherwise, there’s always next summer.
