Parco naturalistico delle Biancane

The park features numerous white rock formations, steam vents releasing vapor at 100°C, and natural geothermal manifestations across the landscape.

Since 1916, the geothermal resources of Monterotondo Marittimo have been utilized for industrial-scale electrical power generation through specialized wells.

The MUBIA Geo Museum within the park provides virtual exploration experiences and educational displays about geological formations and geothermal activity.

Visitors can access the park free of charge and rent audio guides at the MUBIA Museum to learn about the geological features along marked trails.

The hydrogen sulfide emissions cause intense soil acidification, creating white-colored rocks and native sulfur crystallizations in needle-like formations.
