로이아노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Beautiful! Done in gravel, but it was better in MTB. Some passages are a bit excessive and I pushed the bike, mostly for fear of falling into the gully...

at certain times it is also possible to find it open to visit the church

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.

I passed last Sunday 13/10/22 and I found that the whole path on the ridge between the arrival of the Roman road and the settefonti has been restored. I had passed in September and it was very dry and full of cracks, now they have smoothed it out (while remaining 100% dirt)

Enchanting place ... among the most beautiful in the province of Bologna
