Mount Denavolo Cross

From the Church of Chiulano to Mandrola passing through the woods, skirting Mount Denavolo (30 min).

closed road, to go up to Monte denavolo you should turn right but the road is closed with a no entry sign, so you have to continue going down to the village and continuing up to the road and looking for the next path which is a few hundred meters ahead

This side of the hill is characterized by a rapid change in terrain type at every step, you go from the tree-lined path, to the classic path and suddenly you turn the curve and you find yourself overlooking the gullies. They almost look like sand dunes but in the end they are clay rocks eroded by water. The peculiarity is that some are completely almost devoid of vegetation and immediately after you find them covered.

Excellent panoramic point

The cross is cute

The Riva Castle, of typical medieval construction, dates back to 1277 as attested by the inscription MCCLXXVII fuit factum hoc castrum, carved inside the manor, and its construction is due to the Del Cairo family of Piacenza, who in 1323 handed it over to Anguissola, appointed by Duke Visconti in 1468, counts of the fiefdom. In 1567 they sold it to Duke Ottavio Farnese who elevated it to a marquisate and gave it to Paolo Vitelli, one of the captains in his service. In 1703 Riva passed to Cesare and Carlo Maggi and then to the Cusani of Milan. In 1778 it was sold to the Sforza Fogliani and then to the Scribani Rossi. Between the 19th and 20th centuries, the Roman prince Emanuele Ruspoli bought it, who completely renovated it in 1884, relying on the architect Angelo Colla, who was also responsible for the restoration of the Gothic Palace of Piacenza. The interventions are not limited to a conservative restoration, but involve a true reconstruction of the building in neo-medieval style which involves, among other things, the elevation of the keep and the creation of curtains and battlements. From Ruspoli the manor passed to the Fioruzzi family, and, therefore, to the current owner Sebastiano Grasso Camardi Polizzi.
