Ischia Savage: Frassitelli and Falanga

Starting near the "Bracconiere" restaurant in the municipality of Serrara Fontana, we will walk towards the Frassitelli area crossing a wild and fascinating landscape along the north-west side of the island until we arrive in the Frassitelli oak forest and its belvedere, where the view will open on the breathtaking panorama that the territory of the municipality of Forio offers. Via an external mule track, we will reach the village of Santa Maria al Monte and the homonymous church along the mule track that connects the municipality of Serrara with that one of Forio.

Then resuming the path entering an uphill mule track that connects to the Bianchetto area and then reaching the Falanga wood where we will go to the discovery of the ancient terraces that bear memory of the wine-growing importance of the area with its shelters and millstones dug into the tuff rock.
Leaving the forest behind, we will return to the Frassitelli area, where we will return towards the Bocca di Serra area, up to our starting point of the excursion.
