Follow it and travel to wineries, dairies, sausage factories and oil mills, where agri-food production is closely linked to agricultural crops and typical local farms.
The road crosses the 5 main valleys of Piacenza: Val Tidone and Val Luretta, famous for their enchanting vineyard landscape, Val Trebbia with its river with crystal clear waters and winding meanders that line the Medieval Village of Bobbio, Val Nure for unspoiled nature, the Village of Grazzano Visconti and the Medieval Castle, Val d’Arda for heroic viticulture and the medieval villages of Vigoleno and Castell’Arquato.
Val Tidone is a territory with a high viticultural vocation, carried out with wisdom and experience since the times of the ancient Romans as can be perceived along the scenic roads, walking through the vineyards and visiting the numerous wineries in the area. It is a land of wine, which hosts the The most vineyard municipality in Italy, Ziano Piacentino, and where they are produced ormany DOC wines of the Colli Piacentini.
