MORE INFORMATION
La posta del buttero
A historical place, crossroads of cattle trails, where animals being taken
to Maremma passed La Posta del Buttero “the Cowboys Ranch”,
a 16th Century farmhouse where every object reminds us of that time, from
here we begin excursions on horseback along the cattle trails and spectacular
landscapes. Marvelous routes in uncontaminated countryside with a precious
but little known beauty. A unique experience enriched by tales of popular
life. All of this is done with maximum safety thanks to the invaluable assistance
of Ivo, the Centre Manager. During the summer it is possible to conduct
nighttime trips by the light of the fullmoon.
The treasures of the Tiber Fluvial Park
Route A The Watermill
Take the footpath in the direction of Spinace, to an old furnace used for
the production of carbon. Immersed in the green of fields and forest, an
ancient Roman road brings you to the Faena torrent, where you head uphill
for 2Km until you reach the old mill of Baldo; following the torrent further,
you pass beneath the crags of Ripanera where you can admire the splendid
natural gorge before heading uphill again to take the path back to the ancient
road that brings you to the mill.
Route B The Barco woodland
Going towards the old bridge of Aldrena, you reach the torrent, and from
there head towards an ancient hunting lodge. A brief pause allows you to
take photographs, and then head towards the woodland of Barco, famous for
its particular wooded area of Turkey Oak, Oak and Juniper. Head uphill towards
the Poggio di Randola, then down towards the quarry and from there take
the path back.
Route C The Hermit
Leaving the centre to get to the Faena pass, you cross the torrent to visit
to Molinaccio, an ancient mill with its old millstones. Heading uphill to
the pine-wood, you arrive at the flat land of Braghino, passing by an old
hermit’s precious medicinal herb garden, and then continue up to the
Faena springs where a delicious snack is planned. You head back past the
atmospheric Torre Nera (Black Tower).
