A great walk, about 2.8 miles and takes about 45-50 minutes - longer if you choose to stop in at the bar on the way back...
The route takes you up to the top of the hill behind the house, along the 'Top Ridge' - with magnificent views across both valleys - and then back into the piazza in the village, where you can press on for home (if this is a pre-breakfast walk) or stop for a brief Campari or Prosecco, if this is a pre-dinner appetite-creator!
The route is entirely on tarmac and compacted trails ('strada bianca')

And for those who really like the detail, here's the elevation profile - basically, up - flat - down a lot - up a bit.
Elevation: Climbs 50m, drops 100m, climbs 50m
