ベットラのおすすめライド

太古の昔、海に覆われていたVal d’Ardaの丘陵地帯に位置するCastell’Arquatoには、多くの化石としてその痕跡が残っています。この場所は、この歴史的時代にちなんで名付けられたPiacenziano地域公園内にあります。イタリア・ツーリングクラブの「バンディエラ・アランチョーネ」を受章しているこの中世の村は、その稀な美しさと壮大な景観で、遠くからは谷全体を支配するその姿で、近くからは完璧に保存され常に修復されている石造りの中世の家々や小道で、人々を魅了します。

Nice viewpoint to relax a bit or take a photo.

The singular basaltic monolith beneath the Bardi castle is located at the beginning of the Bardi - Borgo Val di Taro stage of the Via degli Abati

The road is passable with one-way traffic regulated by traffic lights.

Prato Barbieri (Bettola) is, in fact, the place that acts as a watershed between Val Nure and Val D'Arda. Its strategic position, in fact, can be reached from 3 different sides: Bettola, Gropparello and Morfasso, makes it a very popular destination for cycling enthusiasts and motorcyclists.

A pretty little village with its characteristic castle, a convenient stopover for those taking the Appennino Bike Tour.

The castle was born as a medieval fortification in the Vezzeno Valley. The manor, surrounded by Guelph battlements, is defended by towers, the entrance one with a drawbridge and the mighty central keep. The Castle of Gropparello, known in ancient times as "Rocca di Cagnano", is a characteristic example of a medieval fortification built to defend the access route to a valley, conceived as a true eagle's nest overlooking the cliff, and therefore absolutely unassailable .. The oldest document known so far about Gropparello dates back to the year 810, and is the deed with which the emperor Charlemagne granted the place as a fief to the then bishop of Piacenza Giuliano II.

The Riva castle is a fortified complex located in Ponte dell'Olio, in the province of Piacenza. It is so called as it is located in the district of the same name in the town, whose name derives, in all probability, from its proximity to the Nure stream; the castle was, in fact, built on the right bank of the stream to control the passage along the Nure valley. Its location, near the point where the Nure begins to flow into the Po Valley, was strategic as it allowed control of the passage towards the sea: via the Aveto valley towards Liguria and via the Taro valley towards Lunigiana.
