    The Via dei Monasteri connects Subiaco with the Sacro Speco di Subiaco, a Benedictine monastery. The road has little traffic and passes through a pleasant mountain environment. The hermitage follows the Romanesque - Gothic style and boasts various chapels carved out of the rock.

    On the Simbruini Mountains you can pedal in some parts in total silence and without cars

    The last part is difficult to master with the racing bike, best connect or shoulder.
    Opening times of the monastery with the Sacro speco (Holy Cave), in which Benedict of Nursia (approx. 480-547 AD) lived for a few years before he invented the first large monastery on Monte Cassino and thus western monasticism.
    Opening times (autumn 2020): 9 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
    Masses: Mon-Sat 8:00 a.m., Sun 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.
