The Surrounds

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The little medieval village of Casaprota (10th century) is a rural location with basic amenities (grocery shops, bars, pharmacy, post office, hair dresser, hardware, doctor office, summer swimming pool).

From the “Palazzo del Gatto” residents can take leisurely walks to the lovely villages of Collelungo and Montenero Sabino, or alongside a creek all the way to the source of the river Farfa and the Medieval Bridge, otherwise along fields of centuries old olive groves.

Near Casaprota interesting places can be visited, such as the Farfa Abbey, the Turano Lake and Castel di Tora, as well as the archeological site of Trebula Mutuesca and Santa Vittoria Sanctuary, the travertino quarry at Poggio Mojano, medieval settlements and Franciscan monasteries.

There is little public transport, but SabinARTi can organize excursions; also, a guided visit to the Montenero Castle will be offered exclusively at no cost to the residents. If needed, a taxi service can be hired.
