What to expect on a Turin audio walking tour
A Turin audio walking tour splits between the elegant arcades of the Baroque center and the green riverside sweep of the Po and Parco del Valentino. Both routes share Piazza Vittorio Veneto as a hinge point, so you can walk straight from one into the other.
The Baroque Center route runs about 4.1 kilometers and 56 minutes, starting at Piazza Castello and the Palazzo Reale before reaching Turin Cathedral. You'll walk the covered arcades of Via Roma into Piazza San Carlo, look up at the spire of the Mole Antonelliana, and finish where the city opens onto the Po Riverfront at Piazza Vittorio Veneto.
The Po and Valentino route picks up from there, about 5.3 kilometers and 76 minutes, crossing toward the domed church of Gran Madre di Dio and climbing to the hilltop viewpoint at Monte dei Cappuccini. The narration then brings you back down along the Po Riverside Path and into Parco del Valentino, past the mock medieval village of Borgo Medievale and the turreted Castello del Valentino.
Do both back to back and you'll cover the full range of Turin, from grand Savoy era squares to quiet riverside paths and gardens. It's a comfortable full morning or afternoon of walking, with cafes under the arcades of Via Roma if you need a break partway through.
Where to walk in Turin
A few of the stops you will pass, and why they are worth slowing down for.
Piazza Castello
Piazza Castello is the grand stage at the center of Turin, anchored by the Palazzo Madama and surrounded by porticoed streets that make it comfortable to walk in any weather. The Palazzo Reale sits at one edge, a reminder of the city's history as the capital of the Savoy kingdom, while cafes and shops line the arcades nearby. It is the kind of square you pass through more than once in a day, since so many of Turin's best walking streets radiate out from it. The scale is grand but the atmosphere stays relaxed and local.
Via Roma and Piazza San Carlo
Via Roma is Turin's elegant shopping street, running in a straight line under continuous arcades that shelter walkers from sun and rain alike. Partway down it opens into Piazza San Carlo, often called the drawing room of Turin, with matching baroque churches at one end and cafes with outdoor seating along the sides. The uniform architecture and wide, clean sightlines give the whole stretch a polished, aristocratic feel. It is a comfortable, elegant walk that shows off Turin's baroque planning at its best.
Mole Antonelliana
The Mole Antonelliana towers over Turin's skyline and is the city's unmistakable symbol, visible from streets all over the historic center as you walk. Getting close to its base lets you appreciate the odd, soaring architecture up close, originally built as a synagogue and now home to the National Museum of Cinema. The streets around it are quiet and residential, a nice contrast to the busier squares nearby. Looking up at the spire from below is one of those small moments that makes wandering Turin worthwhile.
Parco del Valentino
Parco del Valentino stretches along the Po River and gives you a leafy, riverside escape from the city's baroque streets, with wide paths shaded by tall trees. Inside the park you will find the fairy tale turrets of the Borgo Medievale, a reconstructed medieval village, as well as the Castello del Valentino sitting right along the water. Rowers glide along the river while joggers and families use the paths that wind through the greenery. It is one of the most pleasant, unhurried walks in Turin, especially on a warm afternoon.
Piazza Vittorio Veneto and the Po Riverfront
Piazza Vittorio Veneto is one of Europe's largest squares, opening up dramatically toward the Po River with the domed Gran Madre di Dio church standing on the far bank. Walking from the square toward the river you cross into a stretch of restaurants and bars with outdoor terraces that fill up on warm evenings. Across the bridge, the hillside climbs toward the Monte dei Cappuccini viewpoint, rewarding the extra steps with a wide view back over the city and its rooftops. It is a scenic combination of grand urban space and riverside charm.
