The "Petratetta Bridge" is a natural bridge made of boulders that connects the two banks of the Calore River, located in the Calore Gorges, near Felitto, in the province of Salerno. It can be reached via a trail starting from Remolino, or from another trail starting from the historic center of Felitto. The bridge marks an interesting crossing point for hikers walking through the gorges, also offering the opportunity to admire the "Marmitte dei Giganti," grooves carved by water in the rock.

One of the many medieval stone bridges found in this area (see the one in Magliano Vetere or the one in Sant'Angelo a Fasanella)

From this bridge on the provincial road you can look out and admire the splendid scenery of the Calore Gorges. Furthermore, from here, you can observe one of the many stone bridges, from the Roman era, which allowed you to cross the river

Notice the old bridge in the depths

Near the small church of Sant'Elena there is a medieval bridge to cross the Calore river. Here a spring throws its waters into the river, and it is possible to continue the path to reach Grava di Vesalo, where the Milenzio stream disappears underground.

On the summit of Monte Gelbison at 1705 m asl is the sanctuary of the Madonna del Monte Sacro, a destination for pilgrimages and devotions. From here you can enjoy a spectacular panorama, and the path to get there is almost entirely in the shade in the woods, therefore suitable even on the hottest days.
