ビヴォンジの洞窟・トップ4

Trekking & Yoga Day: A special day dedicated to relaxation.

Along the climb to Badolato it is possible to stop and admire this noble residence built in the 19th century by the Gallelli barons, the castle stands majestically on a panoramic hill

Very nice view, worth it! Unfortunately, the hiking trail has been completely neglected. Fences and even lighting were once put up - but everything is broken and demolished, the path is often overgrown and not marked. The ruins at the top are now in a much better condition than the hiking trail there. It's a shame, a lot of potential is being wasted here.

Very suggestive place for its history, the castle and the nature that surrounds it, not to be missed

Beautiful historic town if it happens it is worth a visit

Remains of an ancient castle inhabited precisely by the Baroness Maria Enrichetta Scoppa (around the 19th century) who, according to legend, used to seclude herself inside it with young men to then make them disappear in the marshes of Lake Lacina once the carnal relationship was consummated.

From the castle you have a beautiful view, both towards Stilo and towards Bivongi. The ascent to the castle is quite sweaty in warm weather 😅.

After the final tear that precedes the medieval castle of Placanica, we are a bit disappointed. The castle is closed and under renovation. However, if you are lucky, you can meet a kind gentleman who lives in the house adjacent to the medieval fortress who is happy to welcome you to show you the garden that once belonged to the castle and which, after careful restoration work, is now part of his home. . From here you can see the most beautiful facade of the castle and a breathtaking view, which sweeps from the hills to the sea.
