スペッロの天然記念物・トップ20

Franziskusweg沿いの良い休憩所です。避難小屋で宿泊することも可能です。この水源は公式には飲料水として表示されておらず、飲むことは禁止されていますが、私は今も元気です。夜遅くにこれを書いていますが、今日の正午頃にそこから約1.5リットルの水を飲みました。

サッソ・ピアノという名の頂上に立つ、クロチェ・ディ・サッソ・ピアノと呼ばれるこの小さな聖なる記念碑の前で、ここに立ち寄る人々にアッシジの聖フランチェスコについての短い考察を捧げたいと思います。 + 「そして私たちはあなた[神の父]に感謝します、…あなたの十字架と血と死によって、囚われていた私たちを贖いたかったからです。」 (NbR XXIII, 3)

There is an old well here with a nymph in it. Unfortunately the water is not drinkable

The Menotre Waterfall Parking offers two route options: park at Pale for a downhill trail on the way there and uphill on the way back, or at Belfiore to tackle the uphill trail on the way there and enjoy the downhill trail on the way back.

The Abbadessa Caves in Pale are an interesting karst phenomenon, created mainly by the waters of the Menotre River. These can be found in the underground system created by the waters of the Menotre River, whose precipitation in the underground caves has led to the numerous stalactites and stalagmites. Please note that the caves can currently only be visited on Saturdays and Sundays under expert guidance. Duration approx. 30 minutes, price 6 euros (as of 2024).

Pale stands on a travertine counter shaped by the calcium-rich waters of the Menotre River. This mineral, depositing over millennia, has given rise to spectacular caves, including the Abbadessa Caves, so called since the 17th century. There are other caves in the area, many of them partially unexplored; the Sasso di Pale and its underground treasures are a privileged destination for speleology enthusiasts.

summit of Mount Subasio. 360° panoramic view

The mountain Monte Subasio, the local mountain of Assisi, is about 1,290 meters high and is an ancient and mystical mountain. Since early Christian times, its caves have been home to many ascetics and hermits, and its forests have been crossed by monks who settled there over time. Of course, among these monks was Saint Francis. The mountain has a “rounded top”, a huge summit plateau and this offers a breathtaking panoramic view that is second to none. During our hike in October 2023, we were even able to see wild horses in the wild up there.
