Description
The Fox Shelter is a modest and unconventional accommodation designed for those who want to experience the Apennines directly, without any filters and without expecting the comforts of a traditional facility. It is located in a small hill village, gathered around a small square and made up of a few houses, where the atmosphere is simple, quiet, and deeply connected to nature.
This place is suitable for minimalist travelers, hikers, forest lovers, and people seeking an authentic, affordable stay away from mainstream tourism. Here, the value of the experience does not lie in extra amenities but in the opportunity to pause in a genuine setting, breathe fresh air, listen to the sounds of the countryside, and rediscover a slower pace of life.
Those who choose this accommodation should appreciate simplicity and possess a respectful and independent spirit. The Fox Shelter is perfect for those who can adapt, love natural surroundings, and see simplicity not as a sacrifice but as an essential part of the journey.

The Fox's Refuge is located among the hills of the Bologna Apennines, in an area where nature still retains its most genuine character. Forests, meadows, trails, and open views accompany every season, providing an ideal setting for those who wish to slow down, breathe fresh air, and rediscover the joy of silence.
The accommodation is situated in a small hamlet at about 500 meters above sea level, away from traffic and the hustle and bustle of the city. In the surrounding area, it is possible to take walks and hikes immersed in greenery, explore ancient chestnut groves, and reach some of the most picturesque spots of the Emilian Apennines.
Nearby is Riola di Vergato, served by the historic Porrettana railway, while within a short drive, you can reach the scenic Rocchetta Mattei, the Regional Park of the Suviana and Brasimone Lakes, Porretta Terme with its thermal waters, and numerous villages rich in history and traditions. This area remains little known to mass tourism, making it perfect for those who love authentic landscapes, outdoor activities, and the understated charm of the Emilian mountains.
