On the trail of the brigands
Immerse yourself in an adventure that will take you into the heart of the Forca d'Acero beech forest, a place where unspoiled nature blends with the compelling history of brigands. You will walk among centuries-old trees, silent witnesses of a bygone era, and discover the caves that offered shelter to the Cedrone Band during the struggles for Italian unification.
This is not just a trek, but an exciting journey that will allow you to retrace the footsteps of men and women who fought for their land, leaving an indelible mark on history.
