Monte delle Formiche is a relief in the middle Bolognese Apennines above Pianoro, between the Idice valleys and the Zena valley. It has an altitude of 638 m. The name of the mountain seems to be linked to a natural phenomenon that occurs annually around September 8th, the feast day of the Madonna to whom a sanctuary is dedicated at the top of the mountain. Swarms of winged ants of the Mirmyca Scabrinodis variety migrate to this peak from central Europe to make their nuptial flight and die there. The event, which has been witnessed since ancient times, has over time taken on an almost miraculous value, a sort of homage from nature to the Madonna. From the sanctuary there is a beautiful panoramic view of the valleys below. By bike it is a beautiful climb with significant gradients.

The top of Mount Calvo is... bald, and this allows the view to sweep wide and caress with the eyes the ridges that descend towards the Val di Zena.

The sanctuary stands in a wonderful position about 20 km from Loiano on a rocky spur (638 meters high) overlooking the Idice and Zena valleys. Surrounded by a beautiful woodland where in the days of the festival the ancient one takes place. Procession of the Wood, the place is known everywhere as Monte delle Formiche for a curious natural phenomenon that has occurred once a year since time immemorial: the migration to this peak of a variety of winged ants (Mirmyca Scabrinodis) which in September they come in swarms from the center of Europe to complete their nuptial flight. https://www.montedelleformiche.it/santuario-monte-delle-formiche

Beautiful rocky conformation and fun route, view of the highway from the summit a bit disappointing. Reached during the Via degli Dei after about 27km of walking

Wonderful panoramic views, worth seeing and admiring. You reach the summit through a trek through the scents of wild broom and jasmine on a gravel pavement.

Very beautiful rock wall from distance, nice scenery from the top. Recommended! If you are walking the "Via degli Dei" take some time to reach the summit and enjoy the silence and the view from above, you won't be disappointed!

Monte delle Formiche, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view, owes its name to a curious phenomenon: around 8 September, the day of the feast of the Madonna, swarms of winged ants (Myrmica Scabrinodis) reach the summit and die here. This is a natural phenomenon (even if here it is particularly intense and dramatic) common to many types of hymenoptera: the male ants, after mating, are attracted to the places that stand out on the horizon and go there to die. Females will go looking for other places to form new colonies. The phenomenon is very ancient since in 1400 the church was called Santa Maria Formicarum. Popular tradition has attributed to the event an almost miraculous value, a sort of homage of nature to the Madonna: under the image of the Virgin a Latin couplet is reproduced which reads "centatim volitant formicae ad Virginis aram quo que illam voliant vistmae tatque cadunt" (anxiously the ants fly to the altar of the Virgin, knowing that at her feet they will die). It is tradition that insects are blessed and given to the faithful (popular belief has it that they cure some ailments). (Source: https://www.montedelleformiche.it/formiche-alate) The sanctuary of Monte delle Formiche (ecclesiastically called Santa Maria di Zena) The first news of a Christian church in this place dates back to 1078 ... Later in time, a document from the 1400s mentions the church with the name of "Santa Maria Formicarum" and already mentions the arrival of ants above the temple. ... The church was rebuilt several times: in the fourteenth century, in the nineteenth century, and the one we now see dates back to 1957, rebuilt in the same place based on a design by the architect. Gaetano Marchetti, after the devastation of the last war. (Source: https://www.montedelleformiche.it/santuario-monte-delle-formiche)

Mount Bibele is a mountain massif in the middle Bolognese Apennines which acts as a watershed between the basins of the Idice stream to the east and the Zena stream to the west. Its maximum peak reaches 617 meters above sea level and is located in the municipality of Monterenzio (BO). The toponym Bibele probably derives from the Latin verb bibo which means to drink; this mountain, in fact, is known in medieval documents with the name of Monte Bibulo, and was until the 70s of the last century very prolific in perennial springs of fresh and sulphurous water that flowed at its feet. (Source: Wikipedia) The richness of these spring waters would perhaps be the basis of the choice of the settlement by its ancient inhabitants. Here for several decades, an Etruscan community lived together with a Celtic one. This sharing, more unique than rare, has been brought to light over years of excavations by archaeologists, students and volunteers from the University of Bologna and the Municipality of Monterenzio.

Almost 360 ° panoramic view, if you don't want to work too hard to go up, use the paved road, then get off the singletrack. Made with 90s mtb without suspensions or disc brakes, given the slope in the middle of the descent I stopped to cool everything down, not recommended if it rained a lot in the previous days, a lot of sun exposure (no trees), but as long as you go down it is all bearable
