Subject: Springs and Fountains
Toponym: Ca' di Fresco
Type: Spring
Municipality: Monghidoro
Locality: Alpe di Monghidoro
Description
From Monghidoro, take the Futa road (S.P. 65) in the direction of Florence and after passing the intersection with the road for Castel dell'Alpi, turn right into Via S. Pietro.
Keeping to the right, pass through the farmstead of Ca' di Fresco and then turn left; the spring is located 200 metres ahead on the right.
The spring has a flow rate varying from 22 to 25 litres per minute. The water has a low mineral content, with prevalently calcic-bicarbonate characteristics and thus has a diuretic effect, as well as aiding in the elimination of uric acid.
The water is recommended in low-sodium diets.
