モンキオデッレコルティの絶景の山頂・トップ20

モンテ・シッラーラ、素晴らしい場所

A stunning mountain from which you can enjoy a view of the entire Parma Apennines and, on a clear day, you can also see the Gulf of La Spezia.

One of the most suggestive and panoramic peaks of the 00 ridge in the province of PR

Mount Caio is a peak of the Parma Apennines geographically located between the municipalities of Palanzano, Tizzano Val Parma and Corniglio and culminating with the Bocchialini peak at an altitude of 1,584 meters; the peak is located in the municipality of Palanzano. It is the mountain with a height higher than 1,500 meters closest to the provincial capital Parma (38 km). On its slopes, at an altitude of 1,250 m in the territory of the Municipality of Tizzano Val Parma, there is the Schia ski resort, equipped with three ski lifts, including a new (2008) two-seater chairlift, which serve about 15 km of slopes. Mount Caio is rich in woods, pastures and fountains, including the one that flows under the hermitage of San Matteo and collects in a tree trunk. At an altitude of 1,450 m there is a small lake fed by an underground spring.

Rich in woods and panoramic points of rare beauty, the Schia ski area extends along the slopes of Mount Caio which, with its peaks between 1200 and 1600 meters high, is one of the most important mountain massifs of the Apennines. The ski area is equipped with a modern programmed snow system that guarantees the presence of snow throughout the winter season. The station is mainly equipped for downhill skiing, but it is also possible to practice cross-country skiing, hiking and off-piste skiing. Four ski lifts (2 ski lifts, 1 moving walkway and 1 two-seater chairlift) serve the 10 ski slopes that cross the entire area, for a total carousel that covers over 15 km.

The highlight of a ridge hike and one of the few peaks in the area with a summit cross.

Fantastic view over the region.

With its 1,861 metres, Sillara is the highest peak in the entire province of Parma. Since it is located on the border between the municipalities of Monchio delle Corti (Parma) and Bagnone (Massa-Carrara), it is also one of the highest mountains in Lunigiana. Just below the summit, on the Parma side, there are two lakes of glacial origin: the upper Sillara lake and the lower Sillara lake.
