casa a ponte dell'olio

The area sits in the first hills and valleys of the Piacentine Apennines, with mixed farmland, woods and ridgelines rising south of the Po plain. The Nure valley runs through Ponte dell'Olio and is the main local landscape feature. Within this part of the province the nearest larger centre is Piacenza, which provides the main rail links, services and city amenities. The surrounding territory is known for hillside agriculture and for the food-and-wine culture of the Piacenza valleys, including vineyards and cured meats.
