Hotels Romagna
It is no coincidence that Italy is known as the 'Bel Paese', its favourable climate as well as its history and countless works of art scattered throughout the territory have given it this appellation. One of the Italian regions that most identifies and makes the concept of Bel Paese its own is undoubtedly theEmilia Romagna.
One of the largest regions in the entire country, and this is what makes it the most visited region by tourists, both national and international. Mountains, gentle and charming hills, rivers, sea, cities of art, Emilia Romagna offers its visitors all kinds of tourist itineraries.
Mountain holidays: both in winter and summer, the resorts in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines are popular thanks to the local organisation.
Ski facilities in operation in winter, with slopes suitable for even inexperienced skiers due to the gentle slopes, characteristic of the Apennines, areas that take on a different aspect in summer, thanks to the formation of natural lakes at heights of 1,500 metres. Locations such as Monte Cimino, Monte Penice, Lago delle Ninfe, Corno delle Scale.
Holiday in the hills: breathtaking landscapes await hill walkers, on foot, by bicycle, on horseback, by motorbike. Emilia Romagna offers endless routes with fascinating stories:
