Le Cornate di Gerfalco（標高1060-1081 m）は、トスカーナ州のメタリフェレ丘陵の最高峰であり、グロッセート県とシエナ県の間に位置しています。Cornate e Fosini自然保護区の一部であり、トスカーナ諸島からコルシカ島、アペニン山脈まで見渡せるパノラマを提供しています。

Every August 14th the Palio dei Ciuchi takes place, a very heartfelt folkloristic event where the five districts (Corso, Ventosa, Torre, Tramonto and Nobili) compete for a banner painted by local artists. During the same month, "Medioevo nel Borgo" is also organized, a suggestive medieval festival known throughout Tuscany with jugglers, musicians, acrobats and stalls with artisanal products, for a leap into the past.

Roccatederighi stands on a spur of Mount Sassoforte, from which you can enjoy a wide and splendid panorama of the Maremma. The town still retains its medieval charm intact, in addition to the suggestive arched entrance gate and some tower houses. But the peculiarity of this village is given by the close link it has with the rock on which it rests, trachyte, a volcanic rock that has been exploited to build houses and other buildings, dig alleys and squares, and of which boulders and outcrops can be seen in various parts of the center. you can also find the remains of the ancient fortress and some sections of the original walls, dating back to the fourteenth century. In the upper part stands the tower, rebuilt in 1910 with a large clock that marks the time of this corner of Tuscany.

Beautiful🤩 and not many people there. We were alone

the path is not marked but it is a little rough but it is worth reaching

The Buca delle Fate, a natural ravine between the rocks on the slopes of Poggio di Montieri, is a medieval tunnel opened in the Jaspers (red siliceous rock) in correspondence with a fracture with a N20° direction which would have facilitated its excavation. The tunnel has a significant slope (25°) and is very short, about 14 metres; in its terminal part there is a 2x1.5m well currently closed by debris. In the deepest part of the tunnel, in the vault of the well, modest traces of newly formed minerals were found consisting of crystalline concretions of calcite (calcium carbonate), spangolite (hydrated chlorine sulphate of copper and aluminum), nantokite (copper chloride) and brushite (hydrated calcium phosphate). At the top of the well you can observe quadrangular recesses and indentations dug into the rock which were used to anchor the support beams of the winch. Since the tunnel is very narrow (50cm on average) it has two exchange niches along its path, useful for allowing the transit of two miners. Other small rooms used to place lamps are also visible. The absence of evidence of mineralization and an external mining dump makes it implausible that this is a mining tunnel. It is reasonable to hypothesize that this work was functional to the vast underlying excavations, identified in the Santa Maria dei Castagni tunnel between the 19th and 20th centuries. and therefore used as a secondary access route to mining works or as a ventilation duct.

The Etruscan Necropolis of Malignano is easily accessible and undoubtedly deserves a visit.

Interestingly, there are illustrative panels along the way.
