Mt. Mauro
With its 515 meters, the summit of Mt. Mauro is the highest mountain of Vena del Gesso Romagnola and the site of greatest naturalistic and landscape interest of the Park.
The three summits of the mountain are set into a vast and wild system of crags and dolines covered by a thick shrubby and arboreal vegetation; the imposing southern slope offers spectacular panoramas and interesting settlements of rocky vegetation.
Riva di San Biagio
Riva di San Biagio is the longest gypsum rampart: it develops non-stop for over 5 km, from Borgo Rivola to Tossignano.
In order to appreciate the view of the imposing gypsum banks raising from the surrounding hills, it si recommended to follow the panoramic "Strada della Lavanda" (the Lavender Road), connecting Senio Valley, immediately before Casola Valsenio, with Santerno Valley at Fontanelice.
