Tipi Percorsi
A horse-drawn ring between the high and the low Formazza valley, will be an opportunity to fully immerse themselves in the suggestive discourses that welcomed the walsers when they arrived from the nearby Canton Valais (CH) in search of new pastures. A leap in the past, exploring one of the most suggestive waterfalls of Europe chastened into one of the least known valleys of Italy.
Attention : The path is only partly walkable with the bike trailer for children. In the stretch between the locations "Ponte" and "Under Frua" it is necessary to use the carrable road if you want to opt out of this solution. Even for all those who are not familiar with the MTB, it is ill-advised to move from the cycling between the two traits above, because the ramping up of the ramps and the close back could create difficulties.

Focus, the Walsers
The Walsers (contraction of the German Walliser, i.e., vallese, inhabitant of canton Valais) are a population of Germanic origin that inhabits the alpine regions around the Mount Rosa Massive. Whose language is defined as Titsch, Töitschu or Titzschu, terms related to German Deutsch.
Established in the Valley of the Goms, during the centuries XII and XIII, Walser settlers from the high Valais settled in different locations of the Alpine arch in Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria and France. The history of the Walser people in the south of the alps begins in the middle of the thirteenth century, for progressive migrations, developing over time the allocated settlements that we know today.
Their peculiarity was that of having given birth to a model of colonizing high quotas occupying and transforming abandoned alpeses. The Val Formazza represented the entrance door of the Walsers, from here they transitioned and colonized the Alpine arch on the Italian side, whose first stable settlements stood beyond the 1,800 mt.s.l.m. Their peculiarity was that they gave birth to a model of colonizing the high stakes by occupying and transforming abandoned alpeses, valleys and spoiled mountains with permanent settlements.
Focus, Sbrinz Route
All years in late August, for more information www.sbrinz-route.ch
Historical resuming in costume of the journey that unites Bern to Domodossola, a walk in multiple stages during which the journey is relocated to the teaching of tradition. A great way of communication that already 600 years ago, through the Gries Pass, at 2479 m of the quota between the Val Formazza and the Upper Valais, constituted the most direct route between the Lombard Plain and central Switzerland. From Milan to Bern, from the Mediterranean to the plains of Central Europe, they transitioned men, goods, ideas. It was a commercial street, a caravaniera traveled from long rows of mule loads of goods. From the north they went down cattle, skins and cheeses (the "sbrinz" of the Oberland Bernese), but also luxury products such as the precious crystals worked by the monks of Engelberg destined for Italian courts. From the south, the cloths and lust lumps and the wine of Ossola, exported to the court of France.
Focus, the Orrids of Uriezzo
A small canyon located in the municipality of Premia. In the course of the last glaciation (finished about 12,000 years ago) in the present Valle Antigorio and Formazza was the Ghisteel del Toce that with the passage of time and with the help of the torrents at its base eroded the rock by going to form this particular natural spectacle. The tortuous cunics and the throats that it is possible to admire today were formed once the glacier has disappeared. The draining of the various glacial streams has left room for a real canyon that you can visit on foot today. The phenomenon of erosion has created a very rare natural landscape in the Alps. The water force has made up a series of large subcircular cavities separated by narrow and tortuous cunicles whose walls are covered with grooves, volutes and niches.
Focus, Piero Portaluppi-Architect
was one of the most important architects and urbanists of the first half of the ' 900 Italian. Although he has operated predominantly in northern Italy, and in particular for the high bourgeoisie meneghine, he has a real revolution in the way of thinking about the architecture of public and private spaces. Over the course of his career he has carried out projects in a number of areas : not only palaces and residential villas, but also hydroelectric power stations-in which he applied architectural styles more related to historical construction than to industrial-funerary newsrooms, exhibition pavilions, hotels and much more.
Focus, the Formaggi of the Val d' Ossola
Among the cheeses of the Val d' Ossola a place of honor certainly occupies the Bettelmatt, the "cheese of the Gods," produced in seven alpeses of the Antigory valleys and Formazza at an altitude of between 1800 and 2400 meters. The Bettelmatt is produced in the summer, and it is a cheese that nods the great tradition of breed breeding of brown breed. Obtained from the milk of one milking, worked raw and whole, therefore with two daily work, it is a true triumph of perfumes, aromas and unmistakable flavours from the aromatics pastures of the Alps Lepontine.
The maturation of the Bettelmatt can vary from a few months to more years, but only after at least 90 days of seasoning the aromas and perfumes reach the height of the intensity. Of yellow gold or clowns, thick and bronze with maturation, intense, prolonged and deep, aromatic, never trivial flavour.
Other characteristic cheese is Ossolan : a semi-fat or fatty cheese from the delicate, herbaceous, more intense and prolonged flavour in the course of the affinity, used as a dish as a stant and also in the preparation of the traditional potato gnocchi, chestnut flour and pumpkin, or in the poles conce, or still with rye bread to form the traditional oxolan merenda.

Variant from the main route to the Selvino plateau at an altitude of 900 metres. Here one can find an oasis of tranquillity full of initiatives especially for families, with an adventure park and a minimarcia, which is attended by thousands of people every year.
The Sanctuary of the Madonna del Perello is worth a visit. It stands on the site where the Madonna is said to have appeared in 1413 to a farmer who found himself in the middle of a storm while making hay for his cattle on the slopes of Mount Perello.

Si tratta di un percorso che parte e termina da Roselle e passa anche da Batignano per arrivare alla Città Etrusca.
Si parte da Roselle, dal punto di noleggio di bici elettriche BikeSquare; ci si dirige attraverso la ciclabile verso Nomadelfia e andando verso Batignano ci si può fermare per ammirare il panorama che affaccia verso Grosseto.
Che cosa vedere a Nomadelfia
A Nomadelfia vale la pena farci un salto e girare liberamente tra le vie della comunità, per osservare il loro stile di vita.
La comunità di Nomadelfia nacque da un’idea di don Zeno Saltini che si impegnò, negli anni della seconda guerra mondiale, a dare una casa ai numerosi bambini che gli orrori della guerra rendeva orfani. Non quindi un orfanotrofio classico, bensì una sorta di famiglia allargata. Da allora quel senso di solidarietà è cresciuto mantenendo in vita una comunità che rappresenta un modello di virtù per molti credenti.
Da Nomadelfia, arriviamo a Batignano passando dalla diga.
Che cosa vedere Batignano
Batignano è un caratteristico borgo che conserva resti della cinta muraria, con torri e porte, e un cassero, oltre ad un loggiato a tre arcate, costruito con materiali di reimpiego, probabilmente provenienti da Roselle; tutto ciò conferisce al paese un certo tono di antichità. Da segnalare, anche, la presenza di una pieve e di un antico convento, oramai sconsacrato, situato fuori dall'abitato.
Il ritorno Batignano, Città Etrusca, Roselle
Tornando indietro da Batignano, passiamo da una strada alberata molto caratteristica per arrivare alla Città Etrusca.
L'antica città etrusca di Roselle sorgeva su un’altura che consentiva il controllo dell’intera piana di Grosseto. Visitando il sito la prima cosa che colpisce è l’imponente cinta muraria che fu costruita dagli Etruschi, è possibile vedere anche i resti del quartiere artigianale etrusco ed all’esterno del perimetro murario si trova poi la necropoli con tombe a camera, a pozzetto e a fossa.
Tornando verso Roselle percorrendo la ciclabile e attraversando il paese si possono osservare Le Terme di Roselle, una stazione termale non funzionante del comune di Grosseto. Si tratta del più antico stabilimento termale della Maremma che risale all'epoca romana quando Roselle era un importante città dell'Impero con tanto di foro, anfiteatro e basilica.
