Ladispoli is a municipality on the northern Latium coast, with an outlet to the sea between the municipalities of Cerveteri and Fiumicino.
The sand on Ladispoli's beaches is originally black due to its high ferrous component, which is why until the 1960s it was a popular resort for therapeutic sandblasting.
Of the many forests and marshes that were present in the area during the Middle Ages, today the Palo wildlife oasis, which is crossed by the cycle path, and the Torre Flavia marshland remain.
Its late Neolithic origins, between 3000 and 2000 B.C., are still alive in the two Etruscan necropolises, that of Monteroni and Vaccina, just as its entire course through the centuries still pulsates through the archaeological sites, the castles, of Palo or Odescalchi and of Monteroni, and Torre Flavia, built as a defence against the Saracens and later restored by Cardinal Flavio Orsini.
