The Strada della Lavanda transversally crosses the Senio valley at the height of Casola Valsenio, creating a landscape contrast that varies between chalk, gullies, the green of nature, the brooms and the color spots of the lavender in bloom.
This area can be defined as the Little Italian Provence precisely due to the close link with medicinal plants, among which, as we said, lavender excels.
