フォンタネーリチェのおすすめツーリングルート

2023年5月の洪水イベントは、わずか1年前に開設されたばかりのサンテルノ自転車道を壊滅させました。3年間の長い年月を経て、ついに修復工事が開始されます。イモラのルゲーゼ通り近くのヴィコラ・トンベ付近から始まる区間、そこからサン・プロスペロまでの区間、そしてイモラとモルダノ間のマリーノ通りからルゲーゼ通り南までの区間です。その後、イモラとボルゴ・トッシーニャーノ間の区間が扱われ、川の渡渉、登り坂、下り坂、アプリコット畑、ブドウ畑、森、丘、滝に囲まれた、息をのむような44kmの景観をかつての輝きに戻すことを目指します。

yesterday 2nd November not passable.

Following the Santerno cycle path, this bridge allows you to cross the river near Borgo Tossignano.

The "no transit for tanks" sign is nice!

he church of San Ruffillo, located on the road from Casola Valsenio to Montebattaglia, was originally not located in the current location, but rather near the Bonzo and Chiesuola funds, about one km from the current one. Already existing in the 12th century as a hermitage, it only became a rectorate later and mentioned for the first time in 1328. ...see the link https://chieseitaliane.chiesacattolica.it/chieseitaliane/AccessoEsterno.do?mode=guest&code=37724&Chiesa_di_San_Ruffillo__S. _Ruffillo_di_Montebattaglia,_Casola_Valsenio

The toponym Valmaggiore seems to derive from a Roman signal tower of the late empire (Valle Major). The same name remained until the Middle Ages when a small castle and then a municipality arose on the hill, mentioned for the first time in 1265. The small town and the church are also known for a unique event for this area which dates back to 19 October 1506, when Pope Julius II, traveling from Palazzuolo sul Senio towards Bologna, to drive out the Bentivoglios, passed through Valmaggiore on horseback a sumptuously adorned white mule, followed by an escort of cardinals and armed men. Today a plaque commemorating that event adorns the façade of the church. I'll leave you the link.... https://www.imolafaenza.it/cosa-fare/chiesa-di-valmaggiore/

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

Erroneously called "Passo del Prugno"
