At the top of the Valico degli Alburni there is the astronomical observatory of Casone Aresta. Here the wood opens up to make room for a large plateau.

I hope you get a chance to meet Ettore, the volunteer who runs the observatory and currently the only person in the world who knows how to use the telescope inside. Spending a night here on an observing day must be fantastic.
