Italy / Castel San Pietro Terme (BO)

Castel San Pietro Terme is a nice Italian city located between Bologna and the city of Imola - famous for its racing track.

Castel San Pietro - Town centre

The area has numerous SMEs which can give you reasons to visit customers or suppliers.

But risks are high that during your stay you will enjoy a little too much tortellinis, or other fine local specialities during lunches and dinners with clients or business partners.
Or if you simply want to stay fit...  you need to get early up early and go for a run.

The best location I have found in Castel San Pietro for an early morning run starts from the area of "Le Terme". From there you can really enjoy a nice run along the Sillaro river before the start of your business day.

Starting point in the park on via Viale Terme.

Starting point in the park / Viale Terme.

From the park, reach the river and the bridge to go on the other side of the river where you will find a long track which you can follow to the right handside after you have crossed the bridge.

Cross that bridge, then proceed to the right.

You are then on a track which turns into a road and then back into a track and which will last as long as you decide that you have had enough. then you can simply turn back on your tracks, back to the starting point.

The riverside landscape and countryside away from the traffic are really worth it.

Feeling safe - The city official sign says "Forbidden to hunt".
