Prato delle Macinaie
The main economical resources of the Amiata region are chestnuts, timber and, increasingly, tourism (ski resorts include the peak area, Prato delle Macinaie, Prato della Contessa, Rifugio Cantore and Pian della Marsiliana). The lower areas are characterized by olive trees and vines. Other vegetation include beech and fir. In ancient times cinnabar was extracted here.[citation needed]

La Peschiera
The Peschiera is perhaps a unique monument in the southern Tuscan region. it was built by the Aldobrandeshci family as a trout farm, so that the whole Court could be fed during the days of religious fasting, which , in those days totaled more than 200 days per year.
The oldest description found of the Peschiera is of the XVth Century, during the papacy of Pope Pius II Piccolomini: 'On the western side flows an abundant stream of water which, after filling a large fish pond, flows through pipes and thunders down into the valley below. as in a fish farm, large trout are bred, and in the presence of the Pope himself many of these were fished.
