Do you think that Romagna is only worth visiting in summer? Well, you are wrong.
Autumn is one of the best seasons to explore this region, even when it rains, and enjoy what it has to offer…
Read our suggestions and share them with your friends, family, or partner.
If, on the other hand, for you it is an off-limits season for travel, you could start to discover us remotely, through the stories of the Humans of Emilia Romagna …
IF YOU LOVE NATURE
the first days of autumn are perfect for a trip to one of Romagna’s parks, while in October you can lose yourself in the woods and experience Fall Foliage. Don’t forget to snap some Instagram-worthy pictures!
And if you have a sweet tooth, do not miss the opportunity of a weekend to discover the autumnal treasures of the undergrowth – chestnuts, mushrooms, truffles.
For those who love cycling we recommend the Borgia Ring or Dante’s Way.
And what about the timeless charm of the beach in autumn?
IF YOU ARE WITH YOUR FAMILY OR HAVE CHILD-LIKE CURIOSITY
take your children to a museum or to a place that will amaze them.
You can also go for a walk or visit our haunted castles…But be warned: they are not for the faint of heart!
IF YOU WANT TO RELAX WITH YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER
check out one of the many spas along the Via Emilia, taste our culinary specialties, and don’t forget to listen carefully for the roar of engines in the land of motors.
Then, explore picturesque hamlets and cities, including Slow Towns like Brisighella, Santa Sofia and Santarcangelo di Romagna, just to name but a few.
Take some time to nurture your mind, body and soul.
IF YOU LOVE ART AND ARE LOOKING FOR NEW CULTURAL DESTINATIONS
You have a lot of options to choose from: head beneath the ground to underground Santarcangelo, visit the Malatesta Library – listed in UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register, and discover our castles, with thermal spas only a few miles away.
Want more? What about the filming locations of many famous films, or all the places where you can find traces of Leonardo, Guareschi or Garibaldi?
If that’s not enough for you, you can always go urban hiking , visit Romagna’s archaeological sites or a walk on the walls of Ferrara.
If, on the other hand, you cannot resist the charm of the abbeys, we recommend those of Pomposa and San Benedetto in Alpe.
A tour of the ideal cities , to discover the mysteries of Ravenna or around the hills of Cesena and Forlì is also recommended.
IF YOU ARE A MOTORSPORT ENTHUSIAST
then you simply must go to the Misano Adriatico World Circuit, which was named after Marco Simoncelli and is available for hire for a racing session or a ride on go-karts. This is the perfect place to get your adrenaline rush!
If motorcycle touring is more your thing, there is an array of trails to choose from: enjoy the last warm days of the year by riding across Rimini’s hills, the Muraglione Pass, or Po Delta area.
IF YOU PREFER HEADING OFF THE BEATEN PATH
then you will love spending the weekend exploring monasteries and parish churches, underground caves, industrial archaeological sites, piers dotted with fishing huts…
Who knows? You might even find your dream wedding location!
If, on the other hand, you are a golf enthusiast, you just have to go down to the green.
