비토르키아노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Okay, the Parco Thermale di Bagnaccio is once again open daily. In winter from 8am to 8pm, in Summer open until 23pm or even midnight! Entry is 5€ for pilgrims with credential (or if you are lucky like me, also without). Else it is 10€. There are three simple changing rooms, some toilets, a snack automat and coffee maschine and, sometimes just outside, a mobile little restaurant selling hot meals.

About halfway (when you're on the plain near the houses after the woods), be careful not to turn into the tall grass where the app tells you to go, but continue along the road alongside the houses. I encountered a Maremma Sheepdog that came toward me barking. Fortunately, when I calmly turned back, it stopped. Also be careful on the long stretch of dirt road immediately afterward; there are cattle and sheep, along with many dogs. Luckily, the shepherd was there to keep them in check.

Following this path, just before reaching the devil's well, it is not clear where to go, the path disappears and also the white and red signs. We had to go a bit by intuition and take a very steep climb in the woods to get there. Once we reach the well, the path continues easily until the end.

Be careful not to lean out!

What a wonderful place especially if you reach it by bike!

It is impossible not to know the beech forest if you are from the area

It is a large boulder of shaped and carved peperino stone, located in a forest between Bomarzo and Chia; It was rediscovered in 2001 by the Archeotuscia association and the archaeological company Pro-Ferento. The structure has 26 steps carved into the volcanic rock, with a height of 8 meters in the upstream part and 16 meters in the downstream part. It is believed to have been an Etruscan rock altar, probably dating back to the 6th-7th century BC, although some hypotheses suggest even older origins.

My husband and I did this trail and a few others for a 13.5 km walk up and down Monte Venere. It was great. Watch out for pozzo del diavolo. My husband fell in, and now I'm looking for a new husband.
