Routes :

Few steps away from the coast, a charming hilly region rich in history, culture and traditions within which food and wine represent one of the most appreciated expressions.
This project is carried on with the collaboration of corporations, institutions, trade associations and private enterprises: farm and wine producers, mills, cheese factories, farm holidays, hotels and inns situated between the beach and the historical villages in the Marecchia and Conca valleys.

No other product, but Piada can tell the warmth of Rimini, the magic of this land on the east coast ... The kiosks, scattered throughout the region Romagna, from the hills to the sea, are the best places on the road where each of us can find its favourite piada, its favourite street food.

In the shop, besides souvenirs, you may also find a series of typical products of Romagna, a wide range of gourmet products such as wines, liquors, extra virgin olive oil, vinegars, biscuits, jams, honey, sauces, the traditional Romagna pasta, handicraft bakery products from bread to sweets, chestnuts in syrup, candied figs, delicious fruits liquor, artisan Romagna chocolate, meats of the Mora Romagnola, the special fossa cheese from Sogliano and last but not least the symbol of Romagna, the "piadina", flatbread strictly hand baked with Romagna flour and salt from Cervia,

Five are the D.O.C. (Denominazione di Origine Controllata= Protected Appellation of Origin) wines called "Colli di Rimini", which are pleasant companions to Sangiovese di Romagna red wine.
It is said that they reflect the spirit of the people of Rimini, profoundly rooted in local traditions, but at the same time open to all that is international and cosmopolitan.
They are, therefore, a splendid accompaniment to the cuisine of Romagna, to Italy’s other regional cuisine, and to international cuisine as well.

Sangiovese is the most important wine of the local tradition in Romagna, as the Sangiovese grape variety is widespread nationally and contributes to the production of wines of great strength and flavor, for example, Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino.

Despite this, the Sangiovese of Romagna is actually typical of this area and was the first to be recognized as one of the DOC wines of Romagna (Protected Appellation of Origin).

The hinterland of Rimini boasts a heritage of 375 thousand olive trees that produce annually about 30 thousand tons of olives, half of extra virgin olive oil produced in the region Emilia Romagna.

The thousands of old olive trees in the landscape of the hills of Rimini region are a testimony of the age-old tradition of olive cultivation in this area and the deeply-rooted interest of the local people in this plant.
