Sestola
The terrain around Passo del Lupo is formed by forested slopes on Monte Cimone in the northern Apennines, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. At about 1,550 metres, the pass is one of the access points to the Cimone ski area, with pistes and lifts extending across the mountains above Sestola, Fanano, Montecreto and Riolunato. Monte Cimone, at 2,165 metres, is the highest summit in the northern Apennines and a defining landmark of the Modenese mountains. Roads, parking areas and mountain facilities give the pass the character of an organised outdoor base. Below, Sestola is known for the Rocca di Sestola, a fortress standing above the town centre.

Sestola lies above the upper Panaro valley, on the wooded northern slopes of Monte Cimone in the Modenese Apennines. Rising above 2,100 metres, Monte Cimone is the highest summit in the northern Apennines, shaping a landscape of forests, ridges and changing mountain weather. Sestola is a base for the Monte Cimone ski area in winter and for walks through the Apennines in warmer months. The Rocca di Sestola, a medieval fortress standing on a rocky rise above the centre, recalls the strategic importance of routes through these mountains.

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.
