THE CAMALDA
PATH Rural
life in the
Self-guided
path with 10 resting places. The
itinerary starts and finishes at Casale Camalda and goes mainly
across the land that was once enclosed by the boundaries of this old and
historic farm. It follows an underlying theme recalling how this land
looked until the very recent past, the transformations of the landscape
that took place after it was abandoned and the reestablishment of a small,
organic farm, almost “on tiptoes”, inside the context of a National
Park.
Various aspects are also taken into consideration concerning the flora
and the fauna of the area, now part of a large protected zone encircling
the crest of the Apennines Mountains on both sides from the Sacro Monte de La Verna as far
as Botanical
nametags are provided along the first part of the path, indicating both
the common and scientific names of the main species of trees and shrubs
encountered. The
path and the 10 observation points are also described in our book
“Casale
Camalda – Un antico podere della montagna casentinese tra passato e
presente”, which is available for the visitors and the guests of the
farm.
