ローマの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Beautiful made on Saturday 13th September by Bassiano 🤙

Very beautiful, but be careful with the loose gravel base.

Highest peak of the Lepini.

Monna dell'Orso is a mountain located in the Monte Livata district, in the Simbruini Mountains. With a height of 1,745 meters above sea level, it is one of the most emblematic peaks in the area. The mountain is famous for its ski resort, which includes a four-seater chairlift that allows you to easily reach the top and enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding valley. In addition to winter, Monna dell'Orso is also a popular destination during the summer season, thanks to its trails that lead to panoramic excursions in the heart of the Simbruini Mountains Regional Natural Park.

A 2000 year old road in perfect condition and a spectacular view of the two lakes

On the way to the top of Soratte, just before the San Silvestro hermitage, you can take the path on the left that leads to the small San Sebastiano hermitage, of which modest wall traces remain. The latter was home to hermits in the 16th and 17th centuries, after which it began to be abandoned and fell into ruin. In the rock there is a cavity used to collect water. Short trail but to be followed with care.

This hermitage has a patronal name that is truly on everyone's lips, but only a few will know the person behind it: the feast day of Saint Sylvester (San Silvestro) is December 31st. He lived at the end of the third or beginning of the fourth century and was Bishop of Rome when Emperor Constantine - later generations gave him the nickname "the Great" - recognized Christianity as a religion with the so-called "Edict of Toleration" of Milan, thus ending - at least temporarily - the period of bloody persecution of Christians.

What an incredible climb, really hard but wonderful
