San Giovanni di Querciola’s strategic location will allow you to explore some of the most fascinating gems of the Reggio Emilia Apennines. Here are some places we recommend:
Al bosc d’la fola – The Fairytale Forest. The forest has become a veritable theme park, featuring over 70 wooden statues created by Dino Bertolini over the years, which tell the most famous folk tales: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Little Red Riding Hood, the Magic Beanstalk, and others. It is located about 1.5 km from our Nido delle Colline facility. Follow Via Faggiola to the parking lot at approximately number 8. From there, continue on foot along the Sentiero Spallanzani SSP (Spallanzani Trail) to the forest at the summit of Mount Fagiola. INFO
