you pass by it. It currently appears uninhabited

rideable climbs, well exposed for winter cycling

definitely for the Votigno nucleus which repays you for the climbs while for the Canossa castle what can I say.... to enjoy a wonderful view you have to climb up the tower which remains after centuries of abandonment on the spur of the hill but after the climbs done with the bike, which often reach 10%, the desire is not always left.

The road that passes through the village is steep if you arrive from via Oliveto but, it is 100 meters at most. So do not be afraid and pass through the village even if the castle is better seen from the road that passes just below the castle.

Very well kept castle, it is the first one you come across coming from Reggio

Very ancient castle, already existing in the 10th century, and part of the properties of the bishop of Reggio Emilia.

It was built around 940 by Adalberto Azzo. Known for having been the site of the "Pardon of Canossa": in the midst of the Investiture War, on 27 January 1077, Pope Gregory VII absolved Emperor Henry IV from excommunication in the presence of Countess Matilda and Abbot Hugh of Cluny.

For beginners who have been stuck for a while, it's not so easy. Arm yourself with water, sugar and patience. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to see beautiful things like streams as it hadn't rained for a long time and everything was dry!! But immersed in nature and landscapes.
