Corniglio: Rifugio Lagdei - Impianto Di Risalita Lagdei Lago Santo
Rifugio Lagdei occupies a forest clearing in the Parma Apennines of Emilia-Romagna. Above Corniglio, this mountain refuge is a base for excursions in the Parco Nazionale dell’Appennino Tosco-Emiliano, where beech and conifer woodland gives way to higher open terrain. The Lagdei–Lago Santo lift links the access area with Lago Santo Parmense, a focal point for walking routes and winter sports in the upper Parma valley. Established in 2001, the national park protects a broad section of the ridge between Emilia and Tuscany. Rifugio Lagdei provides food and accommodation for people travelling through these mountain routes.

Corniglio has endured as a fortified settlement in the Parma Apennines since the Middle Ages. Set above the upper Parma River valley, it belongs to a highland zone of chestnut woods, pastures and ridges leading towards Monte Orsaro, the highest summit in the province of Parma. The surviving Castle of Corniglio, rebuilt and altered over centuries, recalls the town’s role in controlling routes through the valley. Corniglio is also a practical base for walking and cycling in the nearby Tuscan-Emilian Apennines National Park, where settled slopes give way to open mountain country.

Emilia-Romagna occupies a broad stretch of the Po Valley and northern Apennines in Italy. From the agricultural plains around Modena and Bologna, the region extends northeast towards the Adriatic, where the wetlands of the Po Delta meet the sea. Wooded Apennine ridges give its southern districts a contrasting terrain. Bologna is home to one of the world’s oldest universities, founded in 1088, while Modena is closely linked with traditional balsamic vinegar. Parmigiano Reggiano and Prosciutto di Parma are further markers of a food culture known well beyond Italy. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Emilia-Romagna.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
