Many guests come to our Agriturismo simply
to relax, walk through the country, and eat
and drink Umbrian products. But for the more
energetic vacationer, Parrano offers attractive
sightseeing opportunities. The area surrounding
Parrano is part of a protected zone which
safeguards its natural beauty. During the
designated season, there is hunting for pheasant,
hare and wild boar. In autumn you can hunt
for mushrooms and truffles in the woods. Within
a radius of 6 Km (4 miles) there are two centers
for horse trekking, two public swimming pools,
tennis courts, an important clay pigeon shooting
center, fishing and trekking along the Chiani
river, and prehistoric caves.
Attività in azienda: swimming pool
(Poggio della Capretta e La Villa); a large
pond with fish; a playground for children;
horses (with expert attendants) for riding
through miles of trails. |
