Pic Nic in the Amiata Mountain

Especially in the summer, we suggest you to take one day time for a pic nic in the beautiful beech forest of the Amiata mountain (2000 mt hight!). It is one of the biggest beech forest in Europe, someone says it is the biggest one and offers you a magical environment, fresh air, plenty of space, equipped areas for barbeques and a tick network of paths.
