Canyon dell' Orrido di Botri

Discover the wildest canyon in Tuscany: the Orrido di Botri! It is an imposing limestone gorge, characterized by steep walls dug deep, up to 200 meters high and in some parts distant only a few meters from each other. The stream, Rio Pelago, flowing has eroded the rocks of the Apennines, forming a natural environment of considerable geological and naturalistic interest. Enjoy the fresh waters of the various pools along the route. Thanks to its integrity, the territory of the Orrido di Botri is also an optimal environment for numerous animal species, first of all the royal eagle, which still nests here, as well as many other species of birds of prey.
