Pragelato is a small municipality in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, located in a high mountain valley about west of Turin, where its name means "icy meadow" due to the harsh winter climate. The town is notable for being situated in an avalanche-prone area surrounded by protective forests of pine and larch trees, which have historically been important for the safety and survival of its residents during winter months.
