What we will do
The meeting point for the activity is at the Cà del Rio resort in Formigine (MO). You will be welcomed and taken to the helipad, where you will get to know the pilot who will accompany you in the flight.
After an introductory briefing, it will be time to board thetwo-seater helicopter for take-off. From Formigine , you will head towards the nearby town of Fiorano Modenese to fly over the Spezzano castle, which stands outside the town centre, amidst the greenery.
Then you will reach the Salse di Nirano nature reserve, a place characterised by the unusual geological phenomenon of eruptive salse. These are muds mixed with hydrocarbons that rise from underground and 'erupt' to the surface, creating small clay volcanoes. These conical formations, similar to gullies, make the landscape very special - a real eye-catcher from the top of the helicopter!
The experience will last a total of about 35 minutes, of which 25 minutes of actual flight time, with return to Formigine.

This activity is open to everyone, aged 14 and over.
