A classic Mtb ride through the vineyards of Bologna, starting from the village of Ceretolo in the municipality of Casalecchio di Reno.
After a few kilometers on a busy road, the actual route begins, with a climb on a dirt road through vineyards and a beautiful view of the city. On the way up you pass by an old mansion best known for its stables. At the top we travel along a scenic ridge and pass by theHermitage of Tizzano , from which Bologna can be seen, before descending back to the main road.
