Chestnut woods and
Mediterranean scrub,
home to a wealth of
fauna, cover the red
limestone hills. Scenes
from daily
life and old trades, such
as the chestnut
gatherers and charcoal
burners of Sassetta,
can be seen in the
Museo
del bosco, (Woodland
Museum).
The beautiful Poggio
Neri Forest Park
is an unspoilt, natural
oasis extending
over 700 hectares and
an ideal place for
wonderful walks.
In the peaceful
countryside where
agricultural holdings
and farms offer
accommodation and
extend a warm
welcome, chestnut and
mushroom gathering
are delightful pastimes.
Natural itineraries and
hiking trails, with access
for the disabled, wind
through thick chestnut
woods and
Mediterranean scrub.
Welcoming clearings and
equipped picnic areas
make walks even more
pleasant.
