The River House overlooks the banks of the Santerno River, in the municipality of Borgo Tossignano (BO). It is located in a property owned by CON.AMI and managed by the Romagna Parks and Biodiversity Management Agency. It comprises a front office, a multipurpose classroom, and 3 hectares of floodplain meadows, which, starting in March 2024, will include new educational and nature-related facilities. The facilities include panels dedicated to the park's environments and its biodiversity, with particular emphasis on birds and mammals. There is also an outdoor classroom for outdoor education activities and a xylotheque dedicated to the tree species found in the floodplain area. The meadow area is equipped with tables, children's games, themed trails, and a multipurpose classroom capable of hosting courses, conferences, seminars, and events for up to 50 people. The Visitor Center is an information point for the Vena del Gesso Romagnola Park and the Santerno Valley. Its activities are linked to the study and dissemination of the river ecosystem, through workshops focused on life in the waters and nature and environmental education activities for various audiences.

Casetto Bassarone Social Hut CAI Argenta Section “Bruno Soldati” The Casetto Cai which we renamed "Refuge" is an old guard house of the Reno river dating back to the early twentieth century. The house, built during the reclamation operations of the Argentine territory as a garrison and guardian of the works themselves, hosted groups of evacuees from the surrounding towns during the Second World War and was inhabited by the last custodian until the 1960s. The house, owned by the State Property, was given in concession to the Province and from this to the Municipality of Argenta, which through an agreement assigned it for use to the local Section of the Italian Alpine Club. The Hut is self-managed, consisting of a ground floor intended as a main room with cooking area and multi-purpose room and a first floor which is currently not usable. ...

A street that allows you to undertake various bike routes: • Climb to Vespignano (taking via Castelnuovo after a few bends) • Climb to Monte Mauro (via Monte Mauro before reaching Zattaglia) • Bitella climb (when you reach Zattaglia, turn left) • Take Val Sintria (when you reach Zattaglia, turn left then immediately right onto via Molino Boldrino), from here there are various alternatives, including the climb up via Cavina and the climb up the dirt road to Croce Daniele. Both of these last two solutions intersect the CAI 505 path, which can be traveled on gravel and MTB. • Montalbano climb
