Carnè Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Set like a jewel between the plaster casts of Rontana and those of Castelnuovo, in the Municipality of Brisighella, the Ca 'Carnè Visitor Center is one of the most evocative corners of the entire Romagna hill.

The center offers numerous services for the visitor: the information point of the Parco della Vena del Gesso Romagnola, the conference room, the "Stanza del Clima" teaching room and the naturalistic museum dedicated to the fauna of the Vena del Gesso, which houses finds of almost all the most interesting animal species in the park.

Scout Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Next to the historic structure of the "Rifugio Ca 'Carnè" visitor center, the "Scout Base" is also active and accessible.
The scout base is located just 150 meters from the visitor center and is surrounded by a coniferous forest on the edge of a beautiful natural sinkhole.
The structure was built to offer a valid point of support for the scout camps.

A nice vantage point to stop and admire all the peaks in the area. It is part of the Carnè ring path. It's located quite high up, so you can see very far.

The castle of Rontana, unfortunately destroyed, stood on the top of Monte di Rontana and is remembered for the first time in 973 with Ugone di Rontana [23].
Over the centuries, the fortification belonged, in succession: to the Forlivesi (1201), to the Faenza (1209), to the Manfredi (1291), to Maghinardo Pagani (1292), to the Manfredi di Marradi (1413), alternatively to the Manfredi and the Holy See (during the fourteenth century).
In 1500 it was conquered by Dionigi Naldi on behalf of Cesare Borgia; in 1506 it belonged to the Venetians, and then returned again to the Papal State.
In 1591 Pope Gregory XIV ordered its demolition, having become the refuge of a large band of brigands.
Since then, the castle has never been rebuilt and today only a few ruins remain.
