Holiday apartment in Buriano: Discover paths, culture and Montalbano

Buriano invites you to plan a trip that combines culture, paths around Montalbano and regional agriculture. If you choose a holiday apartment in Buriano, you can shape your days around different interests: with a visit to the Church of San Michele Arcangelo, a tour along the hill paths or an excursion to Baugiano with its agricultural offerings.

Culture among churches and historical traces

The Church of San Michele Arcangelo in Buriano was rebuilt in 1735. Along the road around San Michele Arcangelo, which is also known as the Complesso Monumentale di Buriano, there is a Stations of the Cross with 14 images and an olive-wood cross from Jerusalem.

Rocca Maestrino also adds a cultural perspective on the surrounding area. Its forms and masonry point to a military origin dating back a long way. In cadastral maps from the beginning of the 19th century, buildings in Pollaiolo powered by water are recorded as mills. Details like these provide reference points for planning days focused not only on the landscape, but also on architectural and historical traces. For those interested in culture, the range therefore extends from sacred history and fortification structures to the historical use of water power.

The Anello del Sasso Regino circular route begins near the village of Buriano and reaches the Sasso Regino boulder. The Itinerario del Montalbano runs mainly along unpaved paths. The Lucciano-Montorio-Buriano panoramic route passes through small villages and the olive groves of the Montalbano hills. For planning your day, the predominantly unpaved surface of the Itinerario is a factor in its own right. The circular route combines this consideration with a specific rocky destination, while the panoramic route derives its character from small villages and olive groves. Anyone wishing to choose the character of the route can opt for the Sasso Regino boulder, the unpaved itinerary or the village-and-olive-grove landscape of Montalbano.

The Fonte di San Busceto is located on the Montalbano mountain range at an altitude of 335 metres and provides fresh water all year round. The Fonte della Bettina can be reached via a short staircase and has a picnic table. A section of the route with a break can include the picnic table at the Fonte della Bettina; the short staircase is just as useful for practical orientation as the 335-metre elevation and the year-round fresh water at San Busceto.

Agriculture and regional specialities

Baugiano is an educational farm and a social farm. Oil, cheese and cured meats are produced and sold directly there. The site includes five themed areas, an amphitheatre and a picnic area. In addition to the paths and cultural sites, Baugiano thus offers a distinct focus on agriculture, products and shared discovery. This focus remains concrete when planning your day: oil, cheese and cured meats are sold directly, while the five themed areas, amphitheatre and picnic area structure your time on the site.
