Wednesday 15 September
Calestano
From 10:00: Nature trip along the Val Baganza:
- external visit to Ravarano Castle, a manor originally built in 1000 as a defence structure, in a commanding position; it belonged to the Pallavicino family in the 13th century and then passed from family to family
- guided visit to the “Salti del Diavolo” (devil's jumps), a spectacular sedimentary formation of the Cretaceous period (80/82 million years ago) that is a 5 km long alignment of huddled rock needles and walls that emerge suddenly for several dozen metres above the surrounding terrain. The name comes from a curious legend about the devil and a hermit. Then on to Calestano.
