La Diaccia Botrona - Cicloturismo in Maremma

The destination of today's cycling excursion is a protected natural area located just south of the charming seaside town of Castiglione della Pescaia, in the province of Grosseto. We are, of course, in Tuscany, and more specifically in Maremma; and we are about to complete the tour of Diaccia Botrona, a protected marshy wetland that is all that remains of the ancient Lake Prile (or Lake Preglio), a lake basin that once extended across the entire plain and was almost completely drained following the extensive land reclamation projects begun by the House of Lorraine in the 18th century, with the aim of eliminating the devastating malaria. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information and complete itinerary with map and GPX: https://www.aliperviaggiare.it/maremm... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOUNDTRACK – SOUNDTRACK Music: Synthwave Intro 21 by TaigaSoundProd Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/9839-synthw...
