Embark on a fascinating journey through Cervia's rich salt-making history. Starting at the Salina di Cervia Visitor Center, this immersive excursion takes you on a walking tour to the evocative Salina Camillone, the last traditional salt pan where salt is still harvested by hand using ancient methods. Along this easy, one-kilometer path, you'll step back in time to discover the Roman salt pans from the 3rd century BC, uncovered during excavations in 2015. Moreover, learn about the precious "White Gold" that the Romans used, traded, and consumed, all while surrounded by serene waters and the stories carried by the wind.
