This stretch of dirt road offers a unique view of Mount Soratte, which resembles the cone of a volcano. From spring until early summer, the fields fill with poppies, making the landscape even more captivating.

The waterfall was built to feed a canal, probably built by the populations that lived in this area even before the arrival of the Romans (at least the 5th century BC) and later, in the 1940s, the same canal fed a hydroelectric plant, now decommissioned. Currently, the canal is passable on foot (or by mountain bike) and connects the waterfall to the gorge below the town of Corchiano. The entire route, without difficulties, lasts about thirty minutes.

The Roman bridge probably dates back to the 3rd century AD and is part of an area rich in historical evidence, including Etruscan cave roads and Faliscan necropolises. The bridge is located within the Natural Monument of the Forre di Corchiano, a protected area designated by the Lazio Region in 2008. This area is characterized by a rich biodiversity and a unique landscape formed by the gorges dug into the tuff.

The waterfall is located in an area known as “Orto del Sambuco”, along the course of the Rio Fratta. This place is characterized by a small grassy plain where the Rio Fratta creates a suggestive waterfall. In the immediate vicinity there is also an ancient Roman humpback bridge, adding a historical element to the natural landscape

Short panoramic walk with an exhibition of military vehicles.

On the way to the top of Soratte, just before the San Silvestro hermitage, you can take the path on the left that leads to the small San Sebastiano hermitage, of which modest wall traces remain. The latter was home to hermits in the 16th and 17th centuries, after which it began to be abandoned and fell into ruin. In the rock there is a cavity used to collect water. Short trail but to be followed with care.

This hermitage has a patronal name that is truly on everyone's lips, but only a few will know the person behind it: the feast day of Saint Sylvester (San Silvestro) is December 31st. He lived at the end of the third or beginning of the fourth century and was Bishop of Rome when Emperor Constantine - later generations gave him the nickname "the Great" - recognized Christianity as a religion with the so-called "Edict of Toleration" of Milan, thus ending - at least temporarily - the period of bloody persecution of Christians.
