Path of the Valley of the Mills in Mossano.
Hello dear friends
Today, dear friends, I want to take you on a virtual walk with me, a walk that I often take at least once a month. It is located about ten kilometers from my house, but I come to this corner of my region because it is very beautiful both in terms of landscape and nature.
This trail is called the Path of the Valley of Mills because in this municipality called Mossano, located in the province of Vicenza, there is a valley characterized by the presence of ancient water mills that testify to the milling tradition of the area.
There is indeed a trail that winds through a beautiful route, now transformed into a museum showcasing these mills. They are no longer in use, but from time to time, they are opened for visits by people and the many tourists who pass through this area.
Along the banks of these streams, you can find several restored mills, some of which even date back to the medieval period. They were used to grind grains and played a vital role in the lives of the local communities.
As you can see from the photos I took, the mill area also offers a landscape of great beauty, with forests, meadows, and trails winding along this stream. In fact, it is possible to take pleasant walks immersed in nature, enjoying the tranquility and the evocative atmosphere of the surrounding environment. The desire for mills provides not only a glimpse into the historical significance but also an opportunity to experience the picturesque scenery and serenity that nature bestows upon this place.
During my walk, I encountered several animals along the way, including a few horses and cows grazing in the area.
In my opinion, the Valley of the Mills represents a true oasis of tranquility and natural beauty, a place to immerse oneself in history and discover the ancient arts and crafts related to grain processing. It is also a place that offers opportunities for recreation and relaxation. In fact, many people come to this area for trekking, as in my case, but also for horseback riding and bird watching, thanks to the variety of flora and fauna present in the area.
That day, I extended my usual route by a few kilometers and reached the Hermitage of San Bernardino, a beautiful place that was once used for spiritual exercises.
Thank you for reading the post. I hope you enjoyed my photos and that you virtually experienced this journey with me. See you next time! Goodbye, everyone.
