These paths are located mainly in the woods, with the occasional stunning view of the Etruscan Coast and surrounding islands. On the way back, why not stop in the ancient village of Campiglia and discover its rich history and typical Italian narrow streets. Or maybe to explore 'la Rocca' (the old castle) and enjoy the spectacular landscape, grab a bite at the bakery or try the famous "Schiaccia Campigliese!" The walk is about 4.h but it is suitable for all to enjoy!"
Monte Rotondo
The route is accessible up to half the ring even by disabled people and winds all around Monte Bufalaio. This is the Botanical Route path and is characterized by didactic signs of flora and fauna.
