July 2024: the ford is impassable due to a landslide on the road on the Borgo Tossignano side.

The Mineral Water Park is the historic green lung of Imola. Mainly known for its recreational and sporting function, it also has an undoubted botanical and historical value. It is located a short distance from the city center and is nowadays entirely surrounded by the “Enzo e Dino Ferrari” racetrack. It originated from the discovery of Dr. Gioacchino Cerchiari, which occurred in 1830, of the healing sulphurous water springs which made the place immediately popular. The first arrangement of the area into a real park dates back to 1871, with the creation of avenues and flowerbeds according to the so-called "English" model. Currently the park extends over 11 hectares and has a rich heritage of tree species, both native and exotic. Recent interventions have aimed to enhance this heritage by providing the park with two play areas and an educational path of a geological nature, and by redeveloping some historical areas: the area of the ancient springs (indicated by the restoration of the original cisterns), the monumental staircase that leads from Viale Atleti Azzurri d'Italia leads to the Belvedere, and the entrances to the park. In particular we highlight the one to the north, called 'Piazzetta della Fontana' from the ceramic work of the artist Mannes Laffi, and the one to the south, or Piazzetta delle Querce', characterized by paving in stone slabs and cubes which reflect the park logo : an oak leaf.

I would like to point out that at the moment the cycle path is only passable from Imola to Borgo Tossignano due to the flood. Even the ford is unusable.

Beautiful panoramic trail on the crest of the gullies. Some stretches could be very narrow due to small landslides. Recommended to pay close attention in those passages, especially if it has rained recently.

The summit of Monte del Casino offers a grandiose panoramic view. This peak, among the highest in the area, offers an unforgettable spectacle. The paths are well signposted and will easily take you to the top, where you can admire the magnificent panorama and enjoy the beauty of the Vena del Gesso Romagnola regional park.

Puuh, very exhausting to lift your bike over these steps!

The Fonte Fegatella is one of the symbols most loved by the castellans. As the name itself suggests, the source, thanks to its salt-chromium-ionic water (high in bromine and iodine) has healing powers linked to liver health. These powers were discovered way back in 1337, when it is said of a herd of sheep seriously ill with liver disease who, by drinking the water of the Fegatella, returned to health. These properties of the Fegatella water were also studied and listed thanks to tests carried out by university professors present in the city during the seven months of the transfer of the Bolognese university headquarters to Castel San Pietro following the papal interdict on Bologna. ... The main temple monument dates back to the early 1950s, erected by the then independent healthcare company. Subject to interventions and renovations several times, in recent times the source has acquired a second tap towards the Lungo Sillaro park, on the other side of the road.
