Within the activities that are good for our health, Nordic Walking is acquiring a very important role in the area of the ridge between Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna, also thanks to the support offered by the National Park and GAL Antico Frignano and Appennino Reggiano. As a matter of fact, almost all the mountain huts of the protected area provide the necessary equipment and information to engage in this sport: the Center «NeveNatura» in Pianvallese (Villa Minozzo), which also organizes courses and tours, the mountain hut «I Briganti» in Cerreto Laghi, the Cooperative Valle dei Cavalieri in Succiso, Pratizzano mountain hut, Carpe Diem in Pradarena, Hotel Appennino in Civago, the mountain huts «Bargetana» and «Lagdei», the Cooperative Il Ginepro in Castelnovo ne' Monti, Orecchiella Visitor Center, and Hotel Il Castagno in Giucugnano.
The practice of Nordic Walking with the traditional sticks (cheap and accessible for everyone) involves most of the muscles of our body and represents a very efficient aerobic training for a healthy body and mind.
