Hiking
The Fiat 500 is a moving reminder of Italy's past, and the Altomonte is a permanent reminder of its history. Both are small, but big in their own way. The Altomonte is squeezed into the green hills of Calabria like the Cinquecento into the narrow streets of Naples.

Today, the Fiat 500 is one of the most photographed classic cars in the world. The first versions had a two-cylinder engine with a capacity of just 479 cm³ and a power of… 13 HP! And yet the car could reach speeds of over 80 km/h – with a tailwind and a light driver 😉

Altomonte is a municipality in the province of Cosenza located on a promontory 455 meters high. The historic center deserves a stroll to visit various monuments of artistic and cultural interest, including the church of Santa Maria della Consolazione, the church of San Francesco di Paola, the Dominican convent and the Norman tower.
