Monte Cucco, a jewel of the Umbria-Marche Apennines, has been recognized as a protected area since 1995, also known as Monte Cucco Park. Rising to 1,566 m above sea level, the mountain is famous for its caves and its rounded crests, located between municipalities such as Costacciaro and Sigillo. The term "Cucco" could originate from "Kukka", referring to a sacred hill or mountain, or it could describe its conformation or the presence of internal caves.

M.Cucco is now a guarantee!
Done in almost every corner..climate and season..like any hiking location you need adaptation and the ability to understand the weather conditions!

With a climb that is not excessively long and tiring you can admire a panorama that ranges from the Marche to Lazio

Monte Cucco is not only its peak... The natural park of Monte Cucco includes all the surrounding territory from its base, high plains and beautiful peak. This territory offers an infinite number of paths to travel on foot, by bike or even on horseback. This mountain is also very popular with those who love flying with paragliding or hang gliding. But it does not end here... Canyoning in the Rio Freddo gorge, camping, speleology etc... Also worth visiting inside its belly, the Monte Cucco cave. An oasis for fauna and flora and for people who love nature. The peak is one of the highest in the area. Have fun!

During the climb the fog was so thick that I couldn't tell where I was going 😅
