    Hiking

    The Hermitage of San Giovanni all'Orfento is an ideal place to go in the summer, when it's cooler in the mountains. Here the snow persists from October to April, so keep that in mind when choosing your shoes.
    If you love forest walks, the trails around here are great. The entrance to the Hermitage is not for the faint of heart, but the feeling you get at the end is worth it.
    Plan to bring food with you, as the walks can be long and there is nothing at the top.
