The Rossano Valley in Zeri is an area of millenary traditions where life is still marked by the seasons and by agricultural and breeding activities, and where one can still admire and appreciate ancient testimonies of the rural past. The water of the Teglia stream was in fact used to drive the gears of the mills with which different types of flour were ground.
The trek begins at Chiesa di Rossano to take the mule track and path to the valley floor where, at an old bridge, the road along the stream crosses. Further downstream, the first mill is found and along the dirt road at the bottom of the valley, the second and third mills are reached, close to the streams. You can still see the water catchment basins that guaranteed and controlled the flow of water, and following the road you reach the fourth and last mill, which has recently been renovated.
