トッリチェッラシクラの天然記念物・トップ14

リパ・アルタの整備されたエリアから始まるトレッキングで、駐車場、噴水、キオスクバー、ピクニックテーブルがあります。道の最初の部分は非常に険しく、日差しからの遮蔽がありません。その後、森に入ります。道は川に沿って進みますが、夏の間は完全に干上がっています（2025年8月）。いくつかの地点で道から外れて川床に入り、双子の山の岩壁に沿って進むことができます。この道は危険とされていますが、実際には夏の間は10歳以上の子供でも容易に歩くことができます。川が流れている時期は、そこへ踏み込むのがより危険になる可能性があります。

No snow bending the trees, the real cause is this: “…the responsibility for this phenomenon can be traced back to “Soil Creeping” also called “Reptazione”. It is an imperceptible movement of the ground that influences the direction of the trunks at a very slow and constant speed (it is a matter of fractions of millimeters per year). This phenomenon, too slow to be observed directly, mainly affects the more humid soils and slopes with slight inclinations and its effects can be seen only after years and years from its beginning precisely thanks to the curved tree trunks.” Cit.

Monte Girella is the top of the Montagna dei fiori. You can climb to the top via an easy path starting from the Monte Piselli ski lifts in the San Giacomo area. From the top, on clear days you can see the Adriatic coast up to Conero, the Gran Sasso and Sibillini mountains. It is beautiful to observe the nearby Montagna di Campli.

The forest is on the right after passing Lago dell’Orso. The characteristic shape of the beech trees is given by the weight of the snow that bends their branches.

The Gole del Salinello are located in Abruzzo, within the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park. The Salinello river has created a deep gorge between the Twin Mountains.

The Grotta di Sant'Angelo, in the heart of the Montagna dei Fiori, is one of the most interesting rock cavities of the Italian prehistory of the Monti della Laga. The hermitage cave opens at the beginning of the path that leads to the Salinello gorges.

Once known as Ascoli Mountain, Monte Girella offers panoramic views from its altitude of 1800 metres. From here the mountain ranges of the Sibillini, Laga and Gran Sasso are visible. https://ripartiredaistieri.cai.it/sentieri/san-giacomo-monte-girella/
