Ginestra is a shrub that, thanks to symbiosis with bacteria, binds nitrogen from the air and fertilizes even the poorest, dry soils. In fertile soils, it spreads too much, creating dense fields that smother other plants – a bit like an uninvited guest who eats everything from the buffet. Inside, it contains sparteine, an alkaloid used to treat cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation and circulatory problems, and its stiff shoots have been used for centuries to make brooms. And even today, in some places, these shoots are used as traditional rods given to naughty children in December instead of presents.

A plant with intensely yellow flowers that grows wild in southern Italy. Here it is most often called ginestra. It occurs especially in mountainous and dry areas, and its presence in the landscape of Calabria in spring and early summer is very characteristic - it creates yellow spots on the slopes and along the roads. The intensely yellow flowers stand out against the green slopes, creating a strong and at the same time harmonious contrast. This combination works on the imagination and gives a strong impression of the freshness and exuberance of nature. In Calabria, especially in May and June, this contrast is perfectly visible: the green hills are covered with a yellow shower of flowers, creating almost painterly landscapes.

Large stone covered with ferns, under the darkness of the thick beech trees, it seems like a prehistoric environment. It is said that it was a hideout for bandits and a legend has it that a treasure is kept inside and that to find it you have to go to the stone at midnight with a full moon and walk around it seven times jumping on one foot.

Just below the top of Monte Condró, there is this wonderful and silent panoramic point, surrounded by enormous stones in which curious cavities are carved, which in dialect become "quadarelle", or small pots.

A beautiful place from a naturalistic point of view and also from a historical point of view for the ancient Roman bridge of Tabularia.
