Natural springs and rolling hills

A route immersed in nature and rural life, ideal for walking or e-biking, offering the chance to discover the historic springs that once supplied water to the village and the fertile countryside. The itinerary starts in the historic center and descends to the Fonte da Bora, a small and charming spring with a fountain adorned with the Papetti family coat of arms.

From here, the itenarary continues along a scenic path leading to Fonte Tre Cannelle and its wash house in the locality of Casali— symbol of ancient community life. The tour then goes on to Fonte de Marà in the locality of Varano, also restored and perfectly preserved.

The return to the village winds through vineyards and orchards, with opportunities to stop at local farms for a tasting of seasonal fruit, wine and vino cotto. It’s an experience that blends the joy of biking or walking with being immersed in history, nature and authentic flavors of Ortezzano.
