ペトレッラサルトのおすすめランニングルート

It is located just before the bridge that crosses the lake and leads to Castel di Tora

A nice hike, but the view of the two lakes of Turano and Salto is priceless.

San ROCCO was chosen as the patron saint for this church and the corresponding parish. Saint Roch was born in the middle of the 14th century in Montpellier, France. He is popularly regarded as the "plague saint" - alongside Saint Sebastian. A characteristic feature of Roch's depiction in paintings and as a statue is that he is usually pointing to a plague boil on his leg; a dog can also often be seen at his feet, because according to legend, when he was caring for plague victims, he himself became ill and withdrew into solitude, and the dog provided him with bread every day. The memorial day of San Rocco in the calendar of saints is August 16th.

The village of Castel di Tora is among the most beautiful and evocative of the Rieti area and Sabina. It is completely perched on a promontory and for this reason it offers a special view of the Turano lake, without having to climb the peaks of the nearby Navegna and Cervia mountains. In winter it is almost completely unpopulated, while in summer it welcomes the numerous Roman holidaymakers who seek refreshment along the lake shores.

The small and spartan church of San Rocco can be reached with a short detour at the entrance to the bridge over the Turano lake. This chapel is the miniature reconstruction of the largest church submerged by the waters of the Turano river when the dam was built.

Stop at this point of the bridge over Lake Turano to admire the splendid Lazio town of Castel di Tora, a delightful stone village that stands at a height of 607 metres.

Splendid thermal complex from the Roman era which bears witness to how the sulphurous waters of Cotilla were exploited since ancient times. To find out the opening times and days, call the municipality of Cittaducale. From the dirt road it is still possible to see the complex and admire its beauty.

This short bridge that crosses Lake Turano offers a truly spectacular view of the surrounding environment. From here you can admire the wooded slopes of the Monti Navegna Cervia nature reserve to the west, the Carseolani mountains to the east, the perched village of Castel di Tora right at the end of the bridge and the small peninsula of Antuni, on the top of which stands an ancient medieval village.
