We opened the season with a walk around a nearby village appropriatly named Quattro Castella...four hills each one once topped by a castle.
A cold but very educative outing which not only took in one castle (closed)....
and three ruined towers
.,,a variety of plant ecosystems, including this relic olive grove,
...geology...sandstone, a quarry with fossils, and a sulphur spring,
...a LIPU bird sanctuary
but was also a culinary experience thanks to my latest great cookbook (Dolci in Famiglia by Salvatore de Riso) and this focaccia al rosmarina farcita con parmigina di melanzane e provola affumicata
