🏢 About the local organisation
The Legambiente Dora Baltea club takes its name from the river that flows through the Morenic Amphitheatre of Ivrea. All our activities are devoted to the preservation of the territory, either monitoring new industrial settlements or maintaining the natural balance by volunteers’ work. We also partecipate to national campaigns such as “Cleaning the World” e “Alps Caravanning”. We cooperate with some other local clubs engaged in similar activities and involving specifically young people.
