The Town

The farm is located in the town of Roccafluvione (299 meters or about 980 feet), located in the province of Ascoli Piceno. The name of the town is derived from its being situated on a rock in the middle of the river River Fluvione.

This large territory includes as many as 31 small villages. Among these, the associated village of Meschia, famous for bouldering, is a popular destination for lovers of natural climbing.
