Montebello Fortress of Torriana

Highlight • Castle

In the hinterland of Rimini, the fortress of Montebello di Torriana elegantly dominates the Marecchia and Uso valley, from a height of 436 metres: the fascinating journey through history, art and nature is made even more mysterious and magical due to the legendary presence of Azzurrina, or Guendalina, with completely white hair. The little girl was albino and for this reason, due to her appearance, she was kept hidden inside the castle to protect her from accusations of witchcraft.

View of the Marecchia Valley from Montebello

Highlight • Viewpoint

Mythical climb towards the equally mythical Castello di Azzurrina, in Montebello. There are two roads that go up towards the castle, both departing from S. Arcangelo. Both climbs start from the Provincial Santarcangiolese (S. Arcangelo - Ponte Verucchio) and lead to the town of Torriana.
The first alternative begins near the bridge over the Marecchia river and extends 2 km (via Colombarina)
The average gradient of 10.55% with peaks close to 14% make it a challenging climb, albeit with a short distance.
The second alternative begins on the outskirts of Poggio Berni, from this side the difference in height is overcome in 2.8 km with an average gradient of 8.5%.
This climb is practically divided into two sections, the first at 10%, five hundred meters "to breathe" then a long section at 12%.

From the town of Torriana proceeding on via Torrianese, and then towards S. Arcangelo, as soon as you leave the town we find via Castello on the left.
This further climb, possibly to be considered as a continuation of the previous ones, takes us in about 800 meters to the castle of Torriana with an average gradient of 11% and peaks over 14%

Start of the Monte Matto Trail from Montebello

Highlight • Trail

Yes but damn it report that at point A the Marecchia cannot be crossed Ostia. Both at point A and even after half the journey it was impossible to cross to the other side of the river. Furthermore it was dangerous for various reasons.
