Along with every other town and village in the Apennines, Castelnovo is an approved area for the production of Parmesan cheese. It is also home to the only hospital in the area^{[clarification needed]}.

Geography

It is situated in the Reggiano Apennines mountains.

Castelnovo is best known for the Pietra di Bismantova spur. The pietra (literally "Rock of Bismantova") can be spotted from a distance of 30 kilometres (19 mi) as it stands at around 1,047 metres (3,435 ft) above sea level. The rock is a favourite climbing and abseiling destination throughout Italy and is considered a particularly difficult climb due to its outward-curving wall. The rock was mentioned by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy.

Other geographical landmarks include the Triassic chalk formations of the Gessi Triassici and the river Secchia which, together with the Pietra of Bismantova, are part of the National Park of the Appennino Tosco-Emiliano.
