Jan. 14, 2018: RAI 3 Kilimangiaro…the quest for dark skies in the Farma Valley

16 January 2018In the media, nationalpibinko

Kilimangiaro is a long-running Sunday afternoon show about travel. In its section on “the landscape hunter” on Jan 14, 2018, it had a story on “the quest for dark skies” centered on the Farma Valley, Southern Tuscany.

The itinerary starts of from the San Galgano Abbey…in fact, this is not in the Farma Valley, but is the most visited site in the area, and you will see how travelling just a few kilometers from here you can reach an almost unknown location, with medieval sites, stunning landscapes and more features. The report was in fact triggered by the BuioMetria Partecipativa project being originated from this lesser know part of Tuscany, and catching the attention of the authors.
