Villa Minozzo: Civago
Civago straddles the Dolo stream in the northern Apennines of Emilia-Romagna, and its position close to the Tuscan border has linked the hamlet to routes across the range. A frazione of Villa Minozzo, Civago occupies the upper Dolo valley, where wooded slopes, rocky watercourses and scattered houses form a compact mountain settlement. The Dolo is a tributary of the Secchia, one of the principal rivers of the Reggio Emilia Apennines. Civago is also a stop on the Via delle Radici, a long-distance walking route connecting Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany. It provides a useful base for exploring the high Apennines and the nearby Appennino Tosco-Emiliano National Park.

Villa Minozzo is best known in Emilia-Romagna for Monte Cusna, the 2,121-metre summit that is the highest peak of the Reggio Emilia Apennines. The municipality extends through the upper Secchia valley in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, where wooded slopes rise towards high pastures and mountain ridges. Febbio, one of its hamlets, is a starting point for routes to Monte Cusna. Above the main settlement stand the remains of the medieval Rocca di Minozzo, a reminder of the area's long-settled mountain history.

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.
