CYCLE PATH 🚴 Anti-Grazing Gate Botte. Cyclists are allowed to pass to avoid the busy road. ATTENTION: Remember to ALWAYS CLOSE THE GATE. The Rule is Simple: If you don't have horns, close the gate! Thank you for your cooperation.

Capranica is a village in Tuscia, built on a tuff cliff between the Cimini Mountains and the Mignone River valley. Its origins are Etruscan, but the center we see today retains its medieval charm, with narrow streets, arches, ancient gates, and evocative churches such as that of Santa Maria Maddalena. Hazelnut groves, olive groves, and woods extend all around, creating a distinctive landscape. It's a pleasant stop on the Via Francigena, where history and nature meet in an authentic and welcoming atmosphere.

Beautiful cycle path on the Via Francigena towards Rome. The path continues across the Cassia under hazelnut groves.

I had to climb over this gate, which is impossible to open without a tool. The sign says to keep it closed due to wild boars.

This Highlight is placed in the wrong place: in reality there is nothing special here and the Church of Santa Maria in Foro Cassio is located near Vetralla
