Hiking
The Hornbeam of Contrà Piani is a magnificent and majestic centuries-old tree: with its sturdy trunk and its broad crown, it dominates the gentle hill on which it is placed and the valley below. A suggestive bucolic picture in every season.
At least 120 years old (late 19th century), it has a circumference of 3 meters and a height of 20 meters: the dimensions are considerable for the species, since, being used mostly as firewood, it is very rare to find specimens that reach these dimensions. It is registered in the list of Monumental Trees of Italy.
