    Hiking

    Forca di Presta is one of the most famous passes in the Sibillini mountains. There are many trails that start from here. The most difficult ones go uphill towards Mount Vettore, the easiest ones at the foot of the mountain. There is also a wheelchair accessible trail called "Sentiero per Tutti NT2" that from the pass in three kilometers leads to the Belvedere refuge.

    Forca di Presta is one of the most famous passes in the Sibillini mountains. It separates the Castelluccio plain from the Tronto valley and is the natural border between Umbria and the Marche. On summer weekends the roads in the area are very busy, on the other hand the pass is filled with local producers selling all types of local delicacies. I recommend the sheep's ricotta sprinkled with honey, an energy bomb!

    Mountain biking

    The Forca di Presta is the pass that separates the Castelluccio plain from the Arquata del Tronto valley and also delimits the border between Umbria and Le Marche. From here various walking excursions start towards Monte Vettore to the north and some paths that can also be traveled by bike towards Monte Macchialta to the south.
