Il Poggiolo Shelter – Monte Sole Regional Historical Park

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Il Poggiolo is a really welcoming bar/restaurant at the foot of Montesole, from which you can leave for excellent excursions, and return just in time to enjoy a beer or a nice glass of red wine.
There is a car park just under the Poggiolo to be able to leave the car and go on foot for excursions in the Montesole park

Gothic Line ruins at Monte Caprara

Ruins of Caprara di Sopra

Highlight • Historical Site

Ruins of the small town of Casaglia di Sopra, of which the foundations and the few remaining walls allow us to perceive the subdivision of the houses that made it up.
Several panels narrate the sad events that affected him during the Second World War and, the fact of being in those places, brings the facts back to life with extreme vividness.

In the heart of the Monte Sole regional park, this iron cross is very old. It stands in a suggestive position, but the erosion caused by wind and rain makes it difficult to read the dedication. It is one of the many suggestive points inside the Monte Sole park.
