Schia. A hill with a view.


It looked like an interesting location on the map when deciding my Sunday afternoon walk, so I decided to climb up from the ski resort of Schia up to Monte Ciao in the mid Apennines above Parma.

After a stiff climb up the ski slope I reached the crest of the long ridge that leads to Monte Ciao. Wow what a view from this mountain set back from the main ridge of the Apennines.

The main ridge from Monte Orsaro to Cimone were in front of me, Brismantova was on my left, and turning around the Pianura Padana stretched out before me.

This is a place to come back to on a clearer colder day in winter and explore further.
