Trabocco Park is a natural area of rare beauty located in the “vallicola” that marks the boundary between the municipalities of Montecarotto and Poggio San Marcello. The trail that runs through it once represented an important connection between the two villages. In recent decades, the path has been abandoned and overtaken by wild vegetation, but in 2006, the area was partially reclaimed.

The name originates from the presence of a dozen “trabocchi” in the area, small weirs used to slow down the flow of water and stabilize its erosive effect.

The park has an elevation of about 233 meters above sea level and covers an area of about 263,214 square meters, located within the territories of the municipalities of Montecarotto and Poggio San Marcello.

The morphology of the land, shaped by the close proximity of the hill slopes, creates a watershed particularly rich in surface waters in autumn and spring. The Fossato stream forms a “Y” shape with its tributary and flows for 9.5 km before merging into the Esino River.

Inside the park, there are several trails to explore through the various points of interest:
– The ancient ruined mill
– The waterfalls
– The wild meadows
