On the trailBlack rock underfoot, water below, the Etruscan city up on the plateau somewhere behind you. The Fiora cut its way down through old lava a long time ago, and the route simply follows what it cut.
The park runs it for large groups only, so it works for a club or a family travelling together rather than for a pair of visitors.
Montalto di Castro at its real position from Rome, with everywhere else we list behind it — so you can see how far out this one is.
