The Gola del Parma above Corniglio in the Parma Apennines cuts through Eocene flysch sandstone — the Parma river is one of the cleanest in Emilia-Romagna. Otter confirmed. Dipper on every pool. White-throated dipper breeds in the gorge wall. The gorge path follows the old Via del Sale (salt road from Liguria to Parma). Wolf tracks visible on the sandbanks. Dogs on leash on the gorge path.
