Abbiamo soggiornato ad Alcatraz dal 16 al 21 Agosto 2020 due adulti e due bambini di 8 e 13 anni . Purtroppo ristorante, bar, bazar e piscina erano chiusi causa Covid conferendo al luogo una certa aria di abbandono. La struttura è piuttosto isolata e la strada per raggiungerla è costellata di buche. L'accoglienza molto cortese. Gli alloggi sono costituiti da due case di pietra in perfetto stile umbro, con due ambienti spaziosi, angolo cottura e un piccolo bagno con con acqua calda che arriva appena dopo qualche minuto. In camera da letto molti libri a disposizione. All'esterno qualche amaca appesa agli alberi circostanti. Numerosissime cicale di giorno e grilli di notte. Il bosco lambisce a pochi metri le case. Il panorama è splendido, la pace assicurata. All'esterno c'è un unico lampione che rimane sempre acceso, se si potesse spegnere si vedrebbero delle grandi stellate! Nonostante il caldo torrido di quei giorni, su alle case si dormiva benissimo e la mattina c'erano 20 gradi. Con una passeggiata di 15 minuti si può raggiungere un ruscello molto carino da vedere. Da migliorare la gestione dei rifiuti perché l'unica area a disposizione dei turisti si trova a 9km ed è in condizioni pietose. Per le 4 case c'è solo un bidone assolutamente insifficiente. Quest'anno in cui Alcatraz non offriva servizi, é stato un ottimo punto di partenza per le escursioni a Gubbio, Perugia e Assisi. A pochi km anche una fattoria didattica dove si può fare una passeggiata con l'asino (non sul dorso ma portandolo a mano, molto carino per i bambini)

Ho soggiornato alla Libera Università di Alcatraz lo scorso settembre durante il festival EcoFuturo. E' un luogo incredibile, immerso nella natura, dove in ogni angolo trovi un'opera d'arte o uno spunto creativo.
La cosa che mi ha colpito di più l'atmosfera di condivisione e amicizia che si crea tra tutti gli ospiti, Jacopo Fo e lo staff della struttura. Ho avuto la possibilità di conoscere persone splendide e persino di scambiare due chiacchiere con l'artista Paolo Rossi (che era ospite lì in quei giorni).
Ottimo il cibo biologico a buffet della cucina!
