Lake Suviana

Highlight • Lake

The Lake Suviana is the largest artificial basin in the metropolitan city of Bologna and one of the largest in Emilia-Romagna. Located in the Bolognese Apennines at about 400 meters above sea level, it was formed in the early 1930s following the construction of a 90-meter-high dam for hydroelectric power generation. Today it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the region for relaxation, swimming, and outdoor activities.

After a nice walk along the Rhine river, cross the cycle-pedestrian bridge to get to the other side, from where you enter the Monte Sole historical park. The passage deserves a photo.

Borgo di Panico and Stone Bridge over the Reno River

Highlight • Settlement

Contrary to popular belief, there is no panic in this village. In fact, it is a very quiet place overlooking the Reno river. The name "Panico" derives from a type of cereal that was formerly grown in these areas. The cereal would also give the name to the district of Bologna "Borgo Panigale." From here, you can continue up to Marzabotto, or start the climb to access the historic Monte Sole regional park.
