Next, immerse yourself in the heart of the ancient Etruscan civilization in the magnificent archaeological area of Pietramarina! Here, an ancient holm oak forest hosts Etruscan archaeological finds, creating a magical atmosphere that leaves you speechless. From the top of Mount Pietramarina, you will enjoy a unique spectacle: a breathtaking view of the Prato plain, the mountains of the Pistoia Apennines and the entire province of Prato, like in a daydream. And there's more! On clear days, you can even see the Livorno coast and the Tyrrhenian Sea from the legendary Devil's Boulder at the top of the mountain.
