FIRST day in Bobbio

Our Via del Sale is a safe trek of 60 km in 4 days. Our journey will start in the historic town of Bobbio (near Piacenza, in Emilia Romagna), just 1.5 hours by public transport from Milano. Known for its medieval charm, Bobbio boasts ancient treasures like the Ponte Gobbo (Devil’s Bridge), and the medieval Abbey of San Colombano.

We’ll arrive in Bobbio on 27 May to gather our strength before the trek. On 28 May we will visit Bobbio historical heritage and, around 5pm, we will be transferred by minivan to Capanne di Cosola, the beginning of the trek (the crests of the Apennines).

Our accomodation In Bobbio will be the cozy Casa di Ele, located right in the heart of the historic city center.

For those who wish, coworking can be organised in a private room of Bobbio’s Public Library.

During the Trek (Thursday-Sunday) it is NOT possible to work, connection to wifi (3G) is possible along the route.

Before we embark on our adventurous journey, we’ll savor local cuisine, enjoy aperitivos by the Duomo, and experience the essence of Bobbio dolce vita.

Trek will end on June 1 in Sori. We plan to reach Sori around 2pm. Departures from Sori can be planned around 4pm. However, it is not recommended to travel back long distances on June 1. We will be happy to help you finding an accommodation for the night of June 1.
