Pietra di Bismantova is a characteristic and imposing isolated rock bastion, very conspicuous even from afar in the gentler surrounding Apennine landscape of Reggio. It is a large platform with a flat and oblique summit, with woods and meadows and very panoramic edges with vertical cliffs.

Hiking

Once on the summit plateau of the Pietra, 1041 m asl, a dizzying view opens up over the rocky walls, the slopes below and the Triassic gypsum.

Hiking

Beautiful and simple excursion to climb to the top of the stone. ATTENTION ⚠ ⚠️ to children because there is no protection above!!
From the summit plateau you will have a splendid 360° view of all the surrounding hills and mountains.
Recommended at sunset 😉
