カピストレッロの峠・トップ5

Challenging but worth the effort

Smooth 5% ascent from Carsoli between several nature/regional parks. Descent towards Avezzano with fantastic views onto the mountains of the Parco Naturale Sirente-Velina. Good road.

The Vali di Monte Salviano is located at 902 m above sea level within the homonymous nature reserve. In 2000 the work entitled "Teatro della Germinazione" was installed, a sculpture by the artist Pietro Cascella.

The Serra Sant'Antonio pass is located at 1602 m, on the provincial road to Campo Staffi, and is a mountain pass (on the watershed between the Simbruini and the Cantari).

Monna della Forcina is one of the key points in the Mtb outings in Simbruini: here you can start the hard climb of Mount Tarino (not recommended by bike from this side), go up towards Campo Staffi, go down towards Campo Ceraso and Campo della Pietra or go down towards Fiumata or Fillet. If you need water, go to Fiumata, Campo Ceraso or Campo Staffi.

From here you can go up, on the left, to the summit of Mount Tarino (from which the Aniene is born): it still takes an hour and more than 300 meters. in altitude, but, if you go up, you can see Filettino, Campo Staffi and even the Fucino plain to the east

With a generally downhill profile, this trail is one of the most recommended in the area for Mtb or e-Mtb. Ups and downs, guided sections and fast sections alternate while the scenery of the beech forest flows around. It ends on a large grassy clearing and, continuing it as indicated in the track, you arrive on the slope of Female Dead. Highly recommended

The Valico del Monte Salviano in Avezzano (AQ) is located in the heart of the Guided Nature Reserve of the homonymous mountain at 902 m.s.l.m. Here it is possible to admire the Teatro della Germination, a sculpture made by the master sculptor Pietro Cascella and behind there is the entrance to the Via Dei Marsi, a 60 km equipped naturalistic path that connects the Salviano Reserve with the Abruzzo Lazio National Park and Molise in Pescasseroli (AQ), a fundamental naturalistic path as an ecological corridor between the two Parks, allowing the respective fauna to migrate from one reserve to another and thus increase the degree of fauna biodiversity of the two places. The nature trail was created thanks to the commitment in the field of the Social and Sports Promotion Association ERCI Team Onlus Il Salviano, which managed this Reserve until 2011 and in which I was part as a Technical Collaborator from 2005 to July 2017 covering the role of Project Manager "Knowing Nature through Sport" to develop outdoor sports within this protected area. https://abruzzoturismo.it/it/riserva-naturale-monte-salviano-avezzano-aq http://www.erciteam.it/it/ http://www.erciteam.it/it/la-via-dei-marsi-intro https://www.academia.edu/18593575/LA_VIA_DEI_MARSI https://www.academia.edu/18587107/LA_VIA_DEI_MARSI_-_Relazione
