By Foot and Car
Follow any of the tracks here and you will discover a landscape untouched by mass tourism. Just a few steps in the constantly changing hills will be a feast for your eyes. The roads and tracks which leave directly from Ca’ Agostino are almost completely free of traffic and lead onto hills with breathtaking views, into shady woods or across farmland … .
The highs of Apennines with huge forests are ideal for walking-tours in warm summer days, several creeks are inviting to a bath in clear fresh water.
The Parks
A nature reserve (the “Parco Regionale di San Lorenzo in Cerquetobono”) is planned right on the doorstep of Ca’ Agostino. Here farming and nature work hand in hand as in bygone days. Only recently have some of the old houses become restored and reinhabited.
The “Parco Naturale Regionale Sasso Simone e Simoncello” is easily accessible by car or public transport. Splendid walks and guided tours leave from Carpegna and Sestino and allow you to explore the rich flora and fauna of this great natural park. You can also come back from Carpegna on foot, a beautiful four-hour walk.

The surroundings
Of course if you want to exert more energy, then a nice walk in any direction will give you plenty to keep you stimulated visually.
Footpathes and scarcely traveled roads let you enjoy an exeptional lanscape – a paradise also for photographers and painters.
Orchid lovers will find in March their "prey", the broom starts in late May to colour the slopes to yellow and the fields will be dressed in green, yellow and ocher ... more and more fragrance will accompany us along the way ...
