Spectacular route through a beech forest

The origin of the term "Macinaie" has no certain scientific explanation. In 2012, however, dozens of millstones made of trachytic stone, probably dating back to the Middle Ages, were found in the highest part of the mountain, about three kilometers from the town; with a diameter of about 70/80 centimeters. They were perhaps used to grind wheat, cereals and dried chestnuts. The area, therefore, could have been a rudimentary millstone laboratory, made with peperino stone from Amiata. The discovery would provide an explanation for the birth of the toponym "Macinaie", as a place where millstones were built.

Beautiful village as if suspended in time, the urban core, a handful of houses marked by narrow alleys, arches, churches, archaeological finds and small open spaces, is a paradise for those seeking a journey between tranquility and peace. The history that it carries behind it is full of important traces that can be discovered among the alleys simply by raising your eyes to capture aspects, details, images that evoke the past existence of the ancient inhabitants.

In the spectacular scenery of the Grosseto countryside, nestled between gentle hills dotted with olive trees, the small village of Batignano suddenly appears to the gaze of those who travel, which blends perfectly with the environment in an example of absolute harmony. The castle owes its importance in the Middle Ages to the mines from which silver and lead were extracted, to be located in the area towards Montorsaio. As if suspended in time, the urban nucleus, a handful of houses marked by narrow streets, small arches, churches, archaeological finds and small open spaces, is a paradise for those seeking a journey between tranquility and peace.

Once we reach the center of the town we discover the Pieve di San Martino that protects the remains of the Blessed Giovanni and the unique loggia that accompanies us to one of the open doors in the walls, from which it is possible to see a breathtaking view. But the beauties of the village are not limited to palaces and monuments: like any ancient village worthy of the name, Batignano pampers its visitors with pleasant folklore and spirituality events that take place throughout the year. Visit it during the Christmas period to discover it embellished with small nativity scenes that adorn balconies, streets, squares and even niches in the walls: one of the most particular is usually set up inside the old oven of the village, in a small room with a beaten earth floor. Even just to savor these atmospheres, this little Maremma jewel is worth a visit.

Starting and finishing point where you can take the chairlift to reach the summit and the trail area, we also find bars, restaurants and snack bars.

Also a place to escape the summer heat. It is much cooler up here.
