Our family of 2 adults and 2 kids enjoyed several hours exploring the Furlo pass on the last Saturday in December. The landscape is stunning. It's absolutely beautiful!! There were other people in the area but it was not crowded. We had no problem parking the car at the various pull-offs and then walking along the road to explore the different spots of interest. The Etruscan and Roman tunnels were fascinating, as was the Roman-era drainage tunnel that you can still walk into and explore. We will definitely return in the summer to see the change of seasons in this lovely spot!

While it did take a slight bit of "finding", we were very glad that we expended the effort to do so. The scenery is beautiful along the Candigliano river, and what can one say about driving though a (short) tunnel built ca 76 AD but wow!
Traffic was VERY light when we were there, so it was possible to go slowly and stop when desired to admire the area more completely.
If you have time and a vehicle, don't overlook this side trip.

When we went, the road was closed to vehicles, affording an opportunity to walk peacefully along the road that runs right along the gorge. There were a few bicycles and one or two (not allowed) motorcycles. It's a lovely walk with great views of the gorge, and a Roman and an Etruscan arch to see as well.

I really don't know what's the fuss about this place. Sure, there is some historical connotation. Sure, there is a river and some landscape. We originally wanted to walk it, but our son having fallen asleep in the car, we drove through it. Then back. And we were wondering, what's the deal here. In summer, you can hardly see anything because of the lusk vegetation at the side of the road, so I really feel it was not worth the time going there.

Well, OK, yes, it is very nice. However, the reason for the rush is... the road is temporarily (?) closed to motor traffic because of a landslide, which makes the visit all the more enjoyable. The scenery is incredible: sheer limestone cliffs several hundreds of meters high, a narrow green lake on the valley bottom (it's a shame they dammed the river back in the 1920s, but you've got to generate energy somehow...) and you can walk through a Roman road tunnel which is still pretty much in the same conditions as it was when dug in 76 aC. It's a shame that the small 14th Century church next to the tunnel, the 20 meter-high Roman walls supporting the old Via Flaminia, the older tunnel and the modern dam-bridge - which would provide a fantastic view of the valley - are not accessible; on the other hand, the rest is visible free of charge.

A drive along the old road through the Furlo Gorge has a high 'wow' factor. The narrowest part of the road is controlled by traffic lights - the tight middle section is a short tunnel hewn from the rock by hand in Roman times. In the town of Furlo look out for a red building with ample parking opposite. Enter through this building to gain access to the attached free museum.about the geology and wildlife of the area. You will also realise that you are in the world centre of the development of the truffle industry

If you are planning to visit, go as soon as possible before the road opens after a major land slide, however park near the dam rather than drive around to the visitor centre, which we did as you will only have to drive back. There are some amazing views to take in, and take in the history of area. Defiantly worth the visit.

Amazingly beautiful limestone gorge, outstanding example of river erosion over 200 million years. Sheer mountain cliffs covered in thick vegetation, with turquoise waters of the river/lake below.
The stretch of road which runs through the gorge is closed to cars, and only accessible for pedestrians or cyclists. This means it is very easy to walk through the gorge, even with small children/buggies, and view the incredible scenery.
At the end of the walk you can view the Roman and Etruscan tunnels carved out of the rock, and the dam built in the 1920s.
There are paths to the top of the cliffs/mountains but they are for experienced walkers as the terrain is very steep.
Even without the climb to the summit, it was easily the most impressive natural landscape we had ever seen!

Ciao a tutti! Questo agosto, vorrei visitare questo posto. Mi piacerebbe raggiungere le terrazze (alta e bassa), visitare la grotta del Grano ecc. Ho letto sul sito del comune di Acqualagna (che gestisce la zona) e anche su Google Maps che l'accesso è interdetto a veicoli e pedoni. Leggo, però, recensioni contrastanti: c'è chi dice che si può visitare a piedi e chi no. Sapete aiutarmi dicendomi esattamente come stanno le cose? Si tratta di una tappa importante della mia vacanza e, se fosse inaccessibile, dovrò modificare pesantemente il tragitto, solo che mi piacerebbe saperlo prima :) Grazie mille a chi mi saprà aiutare!

Ciao! Io ho fatto solo la passeggiata nella gola del furlo, e la strada a una certa diventa percorribile solo a piedi e in bici, poi ad un certo punto non puoi più proseguire perché la strada è chiusa per rischio frane. Io ci sono andata a inizio giugno... Spero che abbiano sistemato il problema ora di agosto! 😉

Ciao Valentina, si è possibile portare il cane, è tutto su strada se ti limiti a vedere la galleria, la diga e il piccolo invaso, qualche difficoltà in più ma fattibile, se fate trekking sui sentieri dei monti Paganuccio e Pietralata.

È un percorso difficile? Andro con mio figlio, ragazzo down piuttosto pigro
Written August 14, 2019
assolutamente no, non è un percorso da escursione, si cammina lungo la strada nei pressi della gola.

Se si dorme nei pressi di B& B Aquilegia c'è modo di rifornirsi per cibo prima della camminata ...con supermercato o alimentare?
Written August 4, 2019
Ciao Michel, trovi due bar vicini, uno prima e uno dopo il centro informazioni della riserva, oppure trovi ad Acqualagna in località Fossato (circa 8 km dal B&B) un supermercato famila e un supermercato Conad in Via 23 agosto a 6 km circa.

Ciao, vorrei sapere se è possibile accedervi col cane per una bella passeggiata col mio amico a quattro zampe... grazie

Ciao Pinko, certo che è possibile accedervi con il cane, non hai problemi anche facendo i vari sentieri sui monti Paganuccio e Pietralata tra boschi, pareti di roccia e prati.

Ciao a tutti! Sapete dirmi se è possibile fare un pò di trekking e poi arrivare a fare anche un bagnetto? Ho letto che la maggior parte del percorso è su strada asfaltata ma mi piacerebbe qualcosa di un po' più selvaggio 😊
Written June 28, 2019
Ciao, su strada asfaltata arrivi alla diga, dopo aver percorso la galleria e per quasi tutti quella è la gola del furlo.
Ci sono almeno 10 sentieri da percorrere sui monti Pietralata e Paganuccio che formano la gola.
Ti consiglio di fermarti al centro visita della riserva che trovi in Via Flaminia 36 ad Acqualagna dove trovi tutto il materiale utile, mappe, cartine ecc. o di visitare il loro sito (non posso postarlo per regolamento..

Secondo voi ci si può passare la notte in tenda su una delle rive della gola ?
Written June 16, 2019
No, c'è la strada a strapiombo sul Candigliano. Inoltre più avanti c'è un camping (arrivando da Fossombrone e superando la diga)

Ciao a tutti volevo sapere dove si deve parcheggiare per arrivare alla gola? Grazie
Written January 1, 2019
Io da Pesaro ho importato il navigatore su “passo del furlo” o “gola del furlo” e ti porta in un parcheggio.. da lì inizia la strada che puoi fare a piedi
