This rich hilly forest, nestled in the Poggio Neri Park in Sassetta, dominated by holm oaks and chestnut trees, offers a wide range of outdoor activities, such as trekking, equestrian tourism, mushroom and chestnut picking, hunting and cycling.
Inside the park, several trekking trails, properly marked, are accessible on foot, horseback or mountain bike. Along the trails you will find areas equipped for stops and picnics, old recovered water sources, and the chance to relive the difficult life of the charcoal burners through a visit to the Woodland Museum.
The museum houses a faithful reconstruction of the sod hut of the charcoal burner and his family, the supper place with a stone oven, the chicken coop built with sod, and the drying rack. You will also find all the tools needed for coal making. In addition, è a path accessible to disabled visitors has been prepared, ensuring that all visitors can enjoy the beauty of the area.
Visit the Woodland Museum in the charming Poggio Neri Park to immerse yourself in nature and local history. It is a fascinating and educational experience that provides insight into the rural life of Tuscany in an unspoiled natural setting.
