Hiking
Going up Mount Stella from Ogliara (with appropriate trekking clothing and sturdy shoes), following a secondary path, you can reach the Grotta del Santo Salvatore, used as a refuge for shepherds in case of rain. The cave of the Holy Savior, better known as "il Salvatoriello", opens at 750 meters on the northeastern wall of Mount Stella, and houses the ancient structure of a rock church in Byzantine style, clear testimony of the Greek-Oriental monastic settlement . On the back wall of the cave there is a quadrangular basin which still today collects the dripping waters of the rock.
