カステルサンピエトロテルメのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Downstream from San Martino in Pedriolo, keep the trail towards Via Riniera or ford towards the left side of the river where possible (easy in summer).

Historical ice houses, or neviere, were structures used to store pressed snow or ice collected in winter, allowing their use in subsequent seasons to keep food and drinks cool. Their origin dates back to the ancient Sumerians, with the first documented evidence in 1780 BC in Terqa. In Italy, since Roman times, ice, stored in special rooms, was considered a luxury and used to cool drinks. The first documented ice houses date back to the 13th century in Bologna, some of which are still functioning. A significant example is the ice house of Palazzo di Varignana, where snow was stored through an upper opening and kept in a deep well to keep food cool.

The Amphitheater on the Lake is a natural stage nestled among the vineyards of Agrivar, the agricultural company of Palazzo di Varignana, a splendid example of redevelopment of the territory, the result of an ambitious project of naturalistic engineering. With a classic semicircular structure, the Amphitheater has five steps in sandstone from the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines, on which are distributed large seats that can accommodate over 250 people. During the summer season, the Amphitheater becomes the perfect place for concerts and open-air events of great charm, where it is possible to taste the precious wines produced in the 35 hectares of vineyards that today surround it or the fine oils extracted from the olive trees grown on the nearby slopes. From the Amphitheater you can enjoy an enchanted landscape, especially in the autumn, when the rows light up with warm hues ranging from the yellow of Chardonnay, to the red of Sangiovese, to orange passing through all the many shades of Malbo Gentile. From the center of the Amphitheater a path starts that leads to the lake below and continues to the cellar, the beating heart of the entire estate. Numerous other paths cross the vineyards, among which a particularly fascinating winding path stands out, designed between centuries-old oaks and some newly planted cypresses.

Beautiful climb that connects San Martino in Pedriolo to Via Tanari. Long, good surface, dirt road very well maintained. The last 400 MT before Via Tanari are quite challenging. Here the surface changes, it becomes a cavedagna, now in summer the climb is good, the surface is good and even.

At dawn the yellow ocher color shades of the vines blend with the smells of wet earth

Having crossed the Sillaro stream near the Fegatella source in Castel S.Pietro T., a path begins on a small pedestrian bridge which, running alongside the stream, leads to S. Martino in Pedriolo entirely on a gravel road, sometimes stony and paths. In my opinion it is a valid alternative to v. Viara, asphalted and busy

A vantage point that offers a spectacular view of the calanques. The gullies are unique geological formations characterized by deep gorges and stratified reliefs. This site is ideal for trekking lovers, as it offers many paths that allow you to explore these fascinating natural formations up close.
