Monte Cornacchia Hut

Monte Cornacchia, with its 1151 meters, is the highest mountain in Puglia. From its summit, on which a small forest refuge has been built, you can enjoy a suggestive and spectacular 360° panorama towards Irpinia, the Gargano, the Maiella and the Tavoliere. The summit of the mountain represents the ideal destination for excursions and trekking in search of uncontaminated landscapes and tranquillity. The vegetation of the mountain is characterized by the presence of vast meadows and high altitude pastures, alternating with coniferous and deciduous woods.
The most important faunal presence is that of the wolf, index of the high naturalistic value of the whole area. Alongside the wolf, the presence of numerous species of birds of prey should also be noted. Monte Cornacchia can be reached via the beautiful and comfortable Sentiero Frassati di Puglia which connects Biccari, Castelluccio Valmaggiore, Celle di San Vito, Faeto and Roseto Valfortore.

Monte cornacchia refuge

More than a refuge, it is a bivouac. It deserves to be visited for the satisfaction of reaching the highest peak in Puglia. Always a very windy spot, even in good weather.
