Area Collina

The B&B La Forgia is located in the heart of the Piacentini hills, making it a perfect spot for those looking to combine relaxation, nature, and exploration of the area. The small village of Negri retains an authentic and tranquil atmosphere, characterized by stone houses, rural views, and a slow pace of life, ideal for anyone wanting to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in the peace of the Emilia Apennines.

Just a few minutes away is Bettola, a historic town situated along the Nure River and surrounded by forests, trails, and hilly landscapes. The region is especially favored by hiking enthusiasts, mountain bikers, and cycle tourists, thanks to the CAI paths and the Trail Valley routes that weave through valleys, scenic ridges, and quaint villages nestled in nature. During the warmer months, the Nure River also becomes a delightful spot for refreshing moments and relaxation.

The central location also allows for easy visits to some of the most captivating sites in the province of Piacenza. In about half an hour, one can reach Bobbio, regarded as one of Italy's most beautiful villages, featuring the famous Gobbo Bridge and a medieval historic center. Alternatively, Grazzano Visconti offers a charming neo-medieval village filled with shops and a nostalgic atmosphere. Castell’Arquato enchants with its towers, cobbled streets, and views over the hills, while Rivalta, Travo, and the archaeological site of Velleia Romana provide routes rich in castles, history, and culture.

Additionally, the area is an ideal destination for those who appreciate fine Emilian cuisine. Nearby, there are taverns, agritourisms, and small eateries where visitors can enjoy traditional Piacentini cured meats, fresh pasta, mushrooms, truffles, and local wines, all within an authentic setting that honors local traditions.
