리세르바 델라 페닐리아 최고의 라이딩 경로

nice café right on the water, delicious cappuccino

wonderful location

The hilly Monte Argentario peninsula is a constant source of ups and downs, including here in the small village of Porto Ercole. Thanks to the elevated position, you have a good view of the harbor, the lively promenade, and the fishing activities below.

From the lighthouse of Porto Ercole you can admire the port and the islet of Giglio, with the contrast of the crystalline waters and the mountains that are reflected in the sea. The climb is quite challenging, but the view that opens up in front of you at the top makes every pedal stroke more than worth it.

Beautiful village set in a wonderful cove with two castles on the two headlands.

The old mill is located among the placid waters of the Ponente lagoon, where astonishing sunsets create a truly unparalleled spectacle. The Spanish mill represents the last survivor of the nine mills erected here during the 15th century. They were built with the intention of grinding the grain, transported to the mill via the characteristic small boats of the area, to obtain flour. Originally, the mills operated by exploiting the power of water, but in 1557, when Orbetello became the capital of the State of the Presidia at the behest of King Philip I of Spain, sail blades were introduced to exploit the power of the winds blowing across the lagoon. The nine mills constituted a remarkable example of hydraulic and wind engineering, maximizing both the movement of currents and winds for considerable production.

Porto Ercole, a fantastic village in the Argentario, often very busy but with fantastic views

Nice place for a pit stop to get a coffee and panino.
