WHY THIS HIKE

November Porc, where the great river meets flavor

A day of nature, history, and flavors in the heart of the Bassa Parmense area! On Sunday, we'll set off to discover Zibello, on the banks of the great Po River, walking in the Po and Morbasco Natural Park, among floodplains, embankments, and landscapes suspended in time. We hope the fog will welcome us, a magical element that envelops the plain and makes it possible to age the famous Culatello di Zibello. A gentle and relaxing excursion immersed in a place where nature blends with the most authentic food and wine culture: that of culatello, parmigiano reggiano, and the flavors of a unique land. And to end on a high note... it will coincide with the famous November Porc event! At the end of the walk, those who wish can stop for lunch together and enjoy the typical dishes dedicated to His Majesty the Pig! A day of sport, nature, and traditions, to be enjoyed in good company with smiles, good food, and the charm of the autumnal plain!

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Gianpaolo, an environmental hiking guide and tour leader: from Brianza originally, but long since at home in the province of Parma. My real home, though, is whatever trail I'm walking. I carry the mountains in my heart and a passion for long-distance routes in my backpack, and I don't have a favourite place: lacing up my boots and setting off is enough. What I enjoy most is sharing kilometres and feelings with whoever is walking beside me, because every outing is a journey and every group a new story to live step by step. The backpack is always ready. 🎒 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
