Trilocale in Via Civitavecchia 6

The cluster sits on the slopes of the Monti della Tolfa, a named belt of low volcanic hills in northern Lazio. The Tyrrhenian Sea is about 12 km to the west; the coast nearby includes the towns of Santa Marinella and the larger port town of Civitavecchia. Civitavecchia is the nearest town of size with a commercial port and a railway station linking to Rome. The local landscape within 15 km is a mix of low wooded hills, Mediterranean scrub and agricultural land. Allumiere originated as a settlement serving nearby alum (allume) quarries and there are disused mining works and related archaeology in the area. Road connections give straightforward access to the coast and to routes toward Rome; Rome’s Fiumicino airport is significantly farther by road. The Monti della Tolfa are locally noted for their volcanic geology and historical quarrying activity.
