Monterosso

The variant of stage IX of the Parco dei Ciclovia leads towards Lake Angitola, a naturalistic oasis declared a "wetland of international value" along which a pleasant cycle path runs. The Variant goes from Passo Fossa del Lupo to Torre di Ruggiero crossing the towns of Polia, Monterosso Calabro (with a magnificent historic center where the Museum of Peasant and Artisan Civilization of Calabria is located) and San Nicola da Crissa, called "the balcony delle Calabrie" for the splendid panorama overlooking the Calabrian coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. For those wishing to take a trip to the sea, the magnificent beaches of Pizzo Calabro are only 5 km away from Lake Angitola.

Monterosso is home to the Serre Calabresi Museum, where you can learn more about the geography, flora, fauna and nature trails of the region. In addition, the place is not far from the nature reserve of Lake Angitola.

Definitely worth a visit
