The day started with a drive to the Abbazia di Fiastra (Cistercian) we began a 7km walk in the Riserva Naturale and into the surrounding hills. T opted out of the walk because of a sore knee but spent a happy couple of hours in the very beautiful surrounds of the abbey. Before leaving the abbey we looked inside and found some wonderful frescos.
The views were spectacular and the walk, while not as challenging because of the topography as yesterday, was challenging because there was less shade and more exposure to sun....but it was worth it. The hills in this area are undulating and very picturesque as most of it is farmland used for mixed farming so the colours are varied and very beautiful.
