Civago all'Ombra del Cusna

Craft beer and live music? You’re in for such things at Rifugio San Leonardo al Dolo (half an hour’s walk). Just don’t go overboard, as you’ll need to be feeling alive for the nearby 21-kilometre hiking or mountain biking loop Rifugio Segheria dell'Abetina Reale (half an hour), which has many a mountainous view. Hike to the ruins at Torre dell’Amorotto (45 minutes) gives you just a taste of the historical sites that are within driving distance of the site – Museo del Presepio di Antonio Pigozzi (15 minutes’ drive) has frescoes and artwork belonging to Antonio Pigozzi. If you’re not quite finished with hiking the local landscapes, Rifugio Battisti (25 minutes) is well-known for its huge green slopes and local food specialties such as sweet pastries or polenta and stews. Wild swimming is the reward for finding the Golfarone waterfall (20 minutes). As for a bigger challenge, Mount Cusna (25 minutes) is the second-tallest mountain in the north Apennines.
