리세르바 델레 세르바이에 에 델 파둘레 디 푸체키오 최고의 러닝 경로

I had high hopes for this stretch. But I have to say I found it in terrible condition, and I'm very disappointed, because I could have promoted it on my tours and brought my clients there. I'm very disappointed that the much-hyped Via Francigena isn't kept in good condition. Just before Galleno, I also found a fallen tree that I had to climb over with my bike, and a second one is about to fall. After that? It's not much better.

Here is the Big Bench of Fucecchio, in via del Forrone!

Big Bench No. 256 - FUCECCHIO (FI) The Big Bench is located in a former tuff quarry now abandoned, where nature has resumed its course. The sub-vertical tuff wall is a particularly favourable place for the nesting of bee-eaters, small, very colourful birds that stay for each migration from the end of April to the end of August. The bee-eaters nest in deep tunnels dug in the tuff and that are easily visible from the installation site of the work. The Big Bench has been unexpectedly placed at the bottom instead of at the top and from here it will be possible to enjoy the view of the quarry and the nests of the bee-eaters.

When you stand in front of it, it is truly grand.

Many animals live here: foxes, roe deer, badgers, porcupines and wolves. In 2000, deer were also reintroduced to the reserve. There is a visitor center which is only open for guided tours.
