Roccastrada is part of the Colline Metallifere Grossetane park, and therefore contains so many of this extraordinary area's distinguishing features. There is an abundance of medieval villages and towers, for example, with Montemassi and Roccatederighi being two standouts. The former, which grew up around an Aldobrandeschi citadel, is a maze of narrow alleyways hewn into a rock that overlooks the Maremman plain; Roccatederighi, meanwhile, is beautifully camouflaged among the trachyte cliffs that lend it its profile, unique in its surrounding landscape.
You can visit the ruins of the Giugnano Monastery, in the valley of the river Bai. It lies halfway between Roccastrada and Montemassi, atop a protrusion of trachyte.
The Roccastrada area is full of paths and hiking routes to discover by foot, horse or mountain bike. The 120-km Roccastrada Trekking route and a section of the Grosseto's Via Equestre are there to help you enjoy the local environment to the full, right up to your arrival at the Farma and La Pietra nature reserves.
In Roccastrada's more wooded surroundings - those covered with oak, Turkey oak and chestnut trees - you can explore the Roccastrada springs.
