The marvellous Tolfa, rightly included in the list of ‘Slow Cities’, is a small, ancient town located on the volcanic promontory of the same name in Lazio. Thanks to its genuine and authentic spirit, this ville offers a relaxed and peaceful living experience far from mass tourism. Tolfa's main virtue is the preservation of its historical and cultural heritage, with its characteristic houses, cobbled alleys and spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. In addition, the town is renowned for the ancient art of leather tanning and is part of the Città dell'Olio circuit. Every year, Tolfa organises authentic events such as ‘Tolfa Jazz’ and the ‘Festival dei Briganti’ where visitors and inhabitants can learn about and appreciate the local history, culture and traditions. Tourists can also engage in nature excursions in the ‘Marturanum’ Regional Park, where they can enjoy rich biodiversity and Etruscan archaeological sites. To make the most of your visit, we recommend sampling the local cuisine in typical restaurants, visiting craft workshops and participating in various activities organised by the community.

Main Slow Event
ROCCA.. IN CANTINA
Summer, every year
Tolfa is preparing to host one of the most long-awaited events of the summer on 30 June and 1 July: ROCCA... IN CANTINA edition 2023. After last year's great success, the Rione Rocca is ready to once again open "Le Fraschette", the ancient district cellars under the walls of Tolfa Castle, to the public.
A simple idea, which gets better and better every year.
The Rione Rocca has revived an old Tolfa tradition of spending time in 'Le Fraschette', as their grandparents and great-grandparents did.
Guests can taste the wines of the Alta Maremma Laziale and traditional dishes.
