Hi! I’m Alberto, certified hiking guide. I have lived in Bologna for many years, my passions are the mountains, climbing and a good aperitif with friends. I am a passionate traveller, eager to face new personal and professional challenges. I decided to pursue a career in tourism because I believe in the value of travel as a mean to shorten the distances between people, get out of our comfort zone to expand it more and more. I will take you to discover all the hidden corners a few steps away from the city, are you joining?
Leave the busy city center to explore the other side of Bologna: its hills. Discover the hidden history of the city with me, enjoy its breathtaking view from above until reaching the fascinating Basilica of San Luca .
Our walk starts from Villa Spada . We begin our climb on the beloved Bolognese hills through the San Pellegrino park, where the wonderful view of the city will open up, until we reach the most desired destination: the Basilica of San Luca .
The return will follow the longest portico in the world, a UNESCO heritage site , until reaching the imposing Arco del Meloncello at the foot of the hills.
Our ring will end again at Villa Spada.
The route is about 10km long with 350m of altitude difference. A minimum level of physical preparation and suitable footwear are required.
If you also like to go off the beaten track and explore a city far and wide, looking for panoramic corners, you are in the right place! Come with me to discover the history of the hills of Bologna?
