The Caffarella Valley is part of the Appian Way Regional Park and is its principal access. It covers about 190 hectares between the Aurelian Walls, via Latina, and Via dell’Almone. The park is rich in historical and archaeological evidence, dating back to the 6th century BC, such as sepulchers, villas, towers, and hydraulic works. The main path of the valley presents important naturalistic values ​​for its biodiversity. The valley belonged to the family of Herodes Atticus, who built his villa, the Pago Tropio. The Roman quarries that extend for many kilometers in the subsoil of the Caffarella Valley are worth a visit, as they are mostly used today to cultivate mushrooms.
