Around Gradoli
AROUND GRADOLI
Following an old Etruscan trail, we ride up through thick woods to the top of the crater surrounding lake Bolsena. Here, we enjoy a remarkable scenery including vineyards, Etruscan tombs, the prominent volcanic lake and the panorama dominated by the famous Farnese palace in Gradoli.
A gift made by the Pope in 1500 to the nephew for his wedding :what a present!. We return to the castle riding through the vineyards, vegetable gardens and enchanting woods.In particular enjoying a canter across a tunnel made by oak trees above an old sheperds path.
