Piano Morbanoの近くには、MorbanoまたはMarrupanumとして知られる古代の集落の遺跡があります。 歴史的伝統と地域研究によると、この遺跡はEqui時代（紀元前7世紀）から人が住んでおり、後にMarsicaとAniene渓谷を結ぶ重要な経路沿いの小さな中世の村に変わったとされています。 今日、村を期待してはいけません。遺跡はブナの森にほぼ完全に組み込まれています。少し注意を払えば、石壁、段々畑、そして古代の居住地を物語る他の要素を認識することができます。 現代の地図には依然としてPiano MorbanoとMonte Morbanoという地名が記されており、一部の歴史資料には、おそらく村を支配していた要塞を指すRocca di Morbanoも言及されています。

Reaching the parking lot of the Sanctuary of the Holy Trinity requires a challenging climb. The view from up here, however, makes all the effort worthwhile.

Descending through a beautiful beech forest from the SS Trinità parking lot, you reach the Cippi Papalini. Two centuries ago, they were the border between the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and the Papal States, now Abruzzo and Lazio. We are also at the intersection of the three provinces of Rome, L'Aquila, and Frosinone.

suggestive sanctuary nestled under a rock face, reachable by bike👍

This mill, built by Benedictine monks around the year 1000, was a fundamental point of reference for the inhabitants of the town and the surrounding areas. For centuries, people brought grain here to be ground, relying on the power of the water that, even today, flows clear and abundant. Today, all that remains of the Mola are the sturdy walls and the room where the milling took place, immersed in an almost fairy-tale landscape. All around, the river makes its way through moss and waterfalls, creating water games and reflections of light that make the atmosphere magical, especially in the early hours of the morning or at sunset. It is easy to let your imagination run wild and think about what life here must have been like once upon a time, with the noise of the millstones and the smell of freshly baked bread that spread through the houses of Jenne. The Vecchia Mola is not only a place of historical memory, but also an oasis of uncontaminated nature. In the surrounding area there are crystalline springs, such as that of the Cardellino, and paths that invite you to explore woods, caves and small waterfalls. Traveling along these routes, you often meet hikers, families and nature lovers, all attracted by the simple and authentic beauty of this corner of Lazio.

The Sorgente del Cardellino is one of the most evocative springs of the upper course of the Aniene, located in the territory of the Simbruini Mountains Park, between Jenne and Trevi nel Lazio. This spring flows from a travertine rock completely covered in moss, creating an environment of great naturalistic charm. Along the path that crosses this part of the valley you will also find the Sorgente delle Tartare and the Cascata del Cardellino, which together form one of the most beautiful and uncontaminated landscapes of Lazio. The path that leads to the Sorgente del Cardellino is flat and also suitable for inexperienced hikers, allowing you to admire the richness of water and vegetation typical of mountain areas. The area is also famous for the presence of fauna such as the brown trout and numerous species of birds, including the goldfinch, which probably gives its name to the spring itself.
