Path Through the Olive Groves to Balestrino Castle

Highlight • Trail

Grandiose way through the olive groves. Very deserted and partly steep towards Balestrino.

Balestrino Castle and Village

Highlight • Castle

From Toirano there are two ways to Ballestrino. One leads over the developed road, another goes through the olive groves (gravel), very attractive, in the last piece a bit steeply rising.

Il Dolce Castello

Highlight • Castle

Il Castello - very nice cafe. Ideal for an espresso and a small Italian pastry as a refreshment shortly before the long descent through the olive groves

Historic Center of Toirano

Highlight • Historical Site

The historic center of Toirano is a labyrinth of cobbled alleys and stone stairways winding between stone houses. Its medieval origins are evident in its structure and materials. Strolling through its narrow streets, you can admire arches, doorways, and remains of the ancient walls surrounding the village.

The heart of the town is the Church of San Martino di Tours, which dates back to the 13th century, although it has been remodeled over time. Another attraction is the Clock Tower, once part of the village's defense system.
