アヴェリーノのおすすめツーリングルート

Monteleone di Puglia, the highest municipality in the region at 842 meters above sea level, offers one of the most picturesque viewpoints in the Daunia region. The village is intimate and welcoming, with cobbled alleys, small squares, and views overlooking cultivated hills and winding ridges. Strolling through the center, you'll find fountains, arches, and panoramic views that invite you to pause for a moment.

One of the most iconic climbs in Irpinia: a steady climb from the Cervaro valley floor up to the village, perched on a scenic ridge. The gradient is steady but challenging, ideal for testing your climbing pace. It's a historic section of the Mediofondo Primavera, often raced against the clock, but also perfect for taking it at your own pace to enjoy the views of the valley and the mountains between Campania and Puglia.

Founded in the 7th century by the Lombards, the Benevento Cathedral reached its zenith in the 12th-13th centuries when it was rebuilt in the Romanesque style and adorned with its famous bronze doors. Tragically, the cathedral was almost completely destroyed by Allied bombing in 1943, though its greatest treasure—the bronze doors—was saved. After the war, the cathedral was reconstructed in a modern Romanesque style and reconsecrated in 1965, becoming a powerful symbol of the city's resilience where visitors can still see the surviving original façade, the bell tower, and the rescued doors.

Landmark Roman gateway with carved stone reliefs, built around 114 A.D. in honor of Emperor Trajan.

September 23, 2025 The picnic area is now nonexistent, everything is destroyed and abandoned, including the lake, which has almost become a puddle. It was truly sad to see all this. I went eight years ago, and everything was different. The area, once well-kept and maintained, is now populated by flies, horseflies, hornets, and a total wasteland.

It's not swimmable!

small but quiet park, I pass through there to avoid the busy parallel road
