"The Monteleone station" opens its doors from 5pm today, Saturday 15 June, in the hamlet of Roncofreddo, along the Monteleone provincial road. It is "an oasis of peace in the hills of Monteleone with a breathtaking view of the Romagna coast", as the owners Gioia Galeotti and Viviana Piscaglia, mother and daughter, of the agritourism company "Il podere del leone" define it. After more than two years of restoration work carried out by the Galeotti-Piscaglia family, in a private land of 40 hectares, surrounded by rocks and thousand-year-old olive trees, they find space, a refreshment area, a large lavender field, a pond, an educational farm and spaces dedicated to relaxation. Ten e-bikes are also available for rental with which you can explore the area. "The Monteleone station" is open from tomorrow every day from 8am to midnight. For information and reservations: 0541 164 7490. (Source: https://www.corrierecesenate.it/Rubicone/Monteleone-ha-la-sua-Stazione)

This lake is located on the side of the cycle path (left of the Marecchia river) but further towards Rimini than where it is indicated. I have no idea how it could be indicated on the side of the bridge, since there is no pond there. Not even how it can be changed.

This beautiful pond in the middle of the countryside will bring you a bit of freshness. Take the time to approach gently to see the fish and frogs that inhabit it.

Beautiful path that passes between fields and olive trees to lead to the sport fishing lake of M.Leone Very fun and scenic downhill ... in some places doing it uphill is really difficult. Considering the bottom to be avoided in rainy periods

Where is this place located? I think the wrong point is indicated. [Update: The Highlight placement has changed so I assume it's correct now. Thank you.]
