Via Roma, 49, Medesano

The area lies in the first Parma Apennine foothills, with mixed farmed hills and wooded ridges rather than high mountain terrain. The Taro valley is the main local landform and river corridor. The Parco Fluviale Regionale del Taro is nearby along the river. For services, Parma is the nearest city of size, with a full historic centre, rail connections, hospitals and major shopping and administrative functions. The area is known for the food culture of the Parma province, including prosciutto and Parmigiano Reggiano, and for the Via Francigena crossing this part of the province.
