Hiking
Walking along the path you are captivated by the landscape and you almost do not notice this anonymous-looking building. A plaque recalls that Garibaldi was hidden here during his escape from the Austrians, during what is called "the process". That is, the days in which Garibaldi was helped to hide and escape from the Austrian soldiers here in the Comacchio Valleys. A really interesting place and a piece of our Italian history.
