Ceresole Reale is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Turin in the Italian region Piedmont, located about 50 km northwest of Turin in the Orco Valley, on the border with France.
Ceresole Reale borders the following municipalities: Bonneval-sur-Arc (France), Groscavallo, Noasca, Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, Val-d'Isère (France), and Valsavarenche. The communal territory is home to the Gran Paradiso National Park visitors center. The main structure is the large dam, built in 1925-1931 by A.E.M. (Turin's electrical authority): this formed the Lago di Ceresole (lake of Ceresole), which is not the town's main touristic attraction.
