Description

An evening trek in Brugnello, in the heart of the Val Trebbia in the province of Piacenza, designed for those who love to unwind while enjoying genuine views and discovering one of the most scenic villages in Emilia-Romagna

We set off from the perched village of Brugnello, which looks as if it has come from an artist’s hand, and climb along a hillside trail and stretches of dirt road to the ridge, through woodland, clearings, and viewpoints over the Trebbia River. The route is of medium difficulty, with an ascent on at times uneven ground and a few steep sections, but nothing technical.

To break up the climb, we will stop for 10 minutes for a shared forest-listening exercise: sounds, colors, scents, tactile experiences.

Ideal for enjoying an authentic, cool, and social hike, returning as the light fades. We will have a packed dinner together at dusk on a terrace suspended above the valley.  5 reasons to choose this excursion - Brugnello and the Val Trebbia at sunset - varied trail between woodland and ridge

- manageable elevation gain, but rewarding

- abandoned hamlets and ophiolitic rocks that convey history - dinner at dusk: a community experience with the Guidders

Car pooling available from Bobbio, where we will meet at 4:30 PM, or from Piacenza.

[An optional visit in the early afternoon, before meeting for the hike, to the museum in Bobbio dedicated to Rosa Mazzolini, a 20th-century collector who brought this village back to life].

Guide

Matteo

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I’m Matteo, a certified Hiking Guide. I grew up among the fields, villages, vineyards, and mountain trails of the Emilian Apennines. Although I have traveled extensively over the years—both for work and out of pure passion—I have never stopped feeling deeply connected to my home: the Trebbia Valley. Today, I guide people in discovering these landscapes through slow, authentic experiences defined by steady steps, moments of silence, storytelling, and human connections that leave a lasting impression. I love revealing the small details that make a region truly unique. That’s why every excursion is designed as a complete experience, often enriched by a tasting, a local visit, or a special encounter, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the places we traverse. If you love exploring with curiosity and discovering authentic spots alongside the Guidders community… I’ll see you on the trail! 🥾🌿
