Capo Palinuro lighthouse. From here begins the pilgrim's path or Torri e Fortini. The track is particularly damaged and in several places dug by the rain that has brought out high and sharp rocks. MTB is not recommended

The lighthouse, symbol of Palinuro, is one of the highest in Italy with its 70 meters of height. It cannot be visited inside as it is a military area, but from here you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the gulf and the coast of Capo Palinuro.

Hiking

The highest point is military grounds (closed off), but even from the gate you have a good view of the peninsula
