Frazione Uccelli, 27, Caprile

This is in the lower Biella area between the Serra morainic ridge and the first Biellese Prealps, with a mixed landscape of wooded hills, small fields and scattered villages. The Elvo valley and the slopes below the Oropa and Mucrone side of the Biella mountains are within the local area. The nearest larger town is Biella, which provides the main services, shops and rail connections for the district. The area is known in practical terms for the textile history of the Biella district and for foothill villages at the edge of the prealpine belt.
