Walking Montalbano

Our summer guided walks are back

Summer is going to start and Walking Montalbano guided walks are back. They are organized by the Municipality of Lamporecchio and the tourist office San Baronto-Lamporecchio and they are an unmissable chance for tourists and local people to discover the hidden treasures in Lamporecchio and the Montalbano hill walking along the historic paths in our territory.

We are starting on Saturday June 15th at  3.30 pm, with a walk about 8 km long, which follows mediaval paths surrounded by vineyards and a visit at the church of Santa Maria del Pruno in Orbignano.

Saturday June 22nd after a pleasant walk in the park, our guide will show you one of our territory’s jewels, the magnificent Villa Rospigliosi surrounded by a luxuriant Italian Renaissance garden.

June will close up with the walk on Saturday 29th: after a visit of the church and its evocative Romanic crypt our guide will lead you through the ridge path, to discover some of the most amazing views in the area telling you the history and the legends of our territory, from the Barco Reale Mediceo, the Medici hunting preserve, to the Sasso di Pietra, the huge stone shrouded in mystery and popular fascination. The walk is 10 km long.
