From the top of Mount Monna, when the sky is clear, you can enjoy a 360° panorama that embraces the Picentini mountains with their valleys and the Gulf of Salerno. Trekking clothing, sturdy shoes, good physical preparation, minimum mountaineering experience.

Rebuilt in the 70s, even if closed it is visible from a peephole, it has open areas where you can camp and find comfort.

The defensive building is set between two natural rock towers in a locality in the hamlet of Felitto, in an inaccessible place that dominates the entire valley below. The fortress was surrounded by a triple wall, the first of which can still be identified by some fragments incorporated in the current urbanization; the second, halfway up the slope, still has the watchtowers and the entrance to the Castrum intact; the third with two quadrangular towers was placed to guard the central nucleus built at maximum height. In the factories, the re-use of clay fragments and previous constructions is visible. The various rooms in which the inhabitants' daily activities took place are still clearly evident: three cisterns for collecting rainwater, halls, service area, halls, suspended arches and more. Between the second and third walls, the vast residential settlement can still be identified, positioned on a vast, mainly flat surface. In this area the ruins of a Christian church outline the small nave and the apse.
