Hermitage immersed in the middle of the woods between Mount Fumaiolo and Mount Aquilone, reachable both on foot and by bicycle from three different paths. It has a convenient webcam to check how much snow has fallen in winter. meteosantalberico.it/webcam/current.jpg

The Hermitage of Sant'Alberico stands at m. 1,147 above sea level halfway between the town of Balze and the Celle monastery in a deep gorge at the foot of the Aquilone, Celle and Ocri mountains. It is a place of austere solitude where silence reigns, which invites reflection and prayer.
“The hermits point out to every man that interior aspect of the mystery of the Church which is personal intimacy with Christ. Hidden from the eyes of men, the hermit's life is the silent preaching of the One to whom he has handed over his life, since he is everything to him. It is a particular call to find in the desert, precisely in spiritual combat, the glory of the Crucifix". (Catechism of the Catholic Church, n. 921).
“The internal and external separation from the world testifies to the temporariness of the present time, with fasting and penance they attest that man does not live by bread alone, but by the Word of God” (see Mt 4.4). “The hermits, in the depths of their solitude, not only do not escape ecclesial communion, but serve it with their specific contemplative charism” (Vita Consecrata 7.42).
The hermit's solitude allows him to welcome and give new life to his solitary prayer, full of compassion for every pain, to become a universal heart.

The hermit is someone who God has seduced and who allowed himself to be seduced.

A suggestive location especially in autumn where the undergrowth is covered with red leaves everywhere. However, in this case, be extremely careful where you put your feet and wheels, DANGER OF FALLS.
