    Tips

    Between Modena and Bologna, on the slopes of the Apennines, there is the Monteveglio Abbey Regional Park.

    Just outside the modern town, you can immerse yourself in nature with a multitude of paths for every ability.
    The Piccola Cassia in its western variant also passes through here.

      The itinerary is an ideal approach to the territory of the protected area and offers a broad overview of the landscapes, environments and historical evidence of the place.
      The route is mainly on dirt paths and can be muddy in some short stretches after rain.
      The route starts from the entrance of the medieval village and in the initial stretch runs along the steep slopes of the Cucherla hill and then descends into the large gully basin from which the Rio Ramato originates. Leaving the badland area, the route follows the valley of a tributary of the Rio Ramato for a short stretch and then enters a strip of typically hilly forest, whose undergrowth contains precious blooms of orchids and rare and protected herbaceous species. Upon exiting the forest, the landscape of the "old cultivated fields" opens up, lands that until a few decades ago were cultivated or used for grazing and still retain structures and elements that recall the traditional agricultural landscape.
      Inside the area there is also a small artificial pond, built in the 1990s to serve environmental education activities. From the area of the old cultivated fields the path goes up alongside other abandoned fields and partly already reconquered by spontaneous vegetation to emerge near the cemetery a few steps from the access tower to the village.
