Ruins in the Forest

Highlight • Historical Site

Ruins of a structure, likely an ancient farmhouse reclaimed by nature. Lush vegetation, including trees and creepers, has grown around the walls, giving the place a charming, wild feel. The Via dei Laghi is just a few meters away.

Another quick trip to Nemi. The good thing to know is that they have reopened the road that goes from above "Fontan Tempesta" down to Nemi (it had been closed due to a landslide). Fabio had a small accident when he slipped on the treacherous stretch of rocks and his ankle got stuck between the spokes and the frame and …

Nice rewarding ride on the track of the Alban Hills race (but only because they do it on the route I decided). The legendary climb of the "Spina" 2 km of dirt and then downhill to Nemi with a coffee break and tart. Climbing up the lake shores, Vivaro meadows, Fonte Ontanese and return home. Almost entirely dirt road
