The Naso del Gigante is the highest point in the Reggio Apennines.
Reachable from numerous starting points, the summit is truly panoramic and very popular!
I recommend the winter ascent from the Monte Orsaro refuge with ice ax and crampons (or ski mountaineering if you are experienced): if the day is clear, the show is guaranteed.

Beautiful peak with a 360° view of the surrounding valleys. Reachable by multiple routes. Always quite busy.
The simplest is the one that climbs from the Monte Orsaro refuge.
The winter ascent is also very beautiful due to the little man-made environment.
If you want a tougher climb, take the very direct route from the Zamboni refuge.

The path to reach the top is very scenic and really beautiful; then from the top you have an excellent view of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines
