Today, the Fiat 500 is one of the most photographed classic cars in the world. The first versions had a two-cylinder engine with a capacity of just 479 cm³ and a power of… 13 HP! And yet the car could reach speeds of over 80 km/h – with a tailwind and a light driver 😉

The Fiat 500 is a moving reminder of Italy's past, and the Altomonte is a permanent reminder of its history. Both are small, but big in their own way. The Altomonte is squeezed into the green hills of Calabria like the Cinquecento into the narrow streets of Naples.

The best time to visit Saracena is in spring (April-June) and autumn (September-October). During these months, the weather is mild, perfect for hiking and cycling around the area – temperatures are usually between 15-25°C. The landscape is at its most beautiful then – in spring, olive groves and fruit trees bloom, in autumn the area takes on warm colours and the grape harvest begins. In winter, it can be cold and rainy, and there can be snow in the mountains around Saracena, making it difficult to move around. Summer, on the other hand, can be hot (even well over 30°C), which can make longer cycling trips or sightseeing difficult.

Here Moscato di Saracena is made - a wine that was included in the list of traditional products of the Calabria region in 2010. It is made in small batches according to a local technique that combines the fermentation of fresh must (from the Guarnaccia and Malvasia varieties) with the addition of dried grapes (Moscatello di Saracena and Addoraca). This process has no equivalent in other regions of Italy. The grapes are dried traditionally on mats or grills. The entire production is done by hand, without industrial techniques. The wine has an intense aroma of dried apricots, spices and honey.

Saracena is a mountain town in northern Calabria, located at an altitude of about 600 m above sea level, in the province of Cosenza, at the foot of the Pollino massif. The name of the town comes from the Saracens - Arab settlers who came to Calabria in the 9th century. The town is built in the "kasbah" system - dense development, narrow streets, irregular plan, houses placed wall to wall. This is a structure characteristic of Islamic cities, adapted to climatic and defensive conditions.

The main square is occupied by the Skanberg Monument. Skanderbeg, born Gjergj Kastrioti Skënderbeu (born ca. 1405 – died 1468), was an Albanian national hero who became famous as the leader of the uprising against the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century. He is considered a symbol of the fight for freedom and national identity of the Albanians. He was supported by the Pope and European rulers as the “defender of Christianity” in the Balkans. The Pope called him the “sword of Christianity”. In Albania, he is revered almost as a saint – his monuments stand in Tirana (Skanderbeg Square), Kruja and other cities. The name “Skanderbeg” is borne by streets, schools, festivals, wines and even sports clubs.

Arrived at the gates of Lungro, instead of going up the ramp on the left with indications for the cycle path in the direction of Acquaformosa, it is better to proceed towards the center of the town and continue on the main road; in this way you avoid that very hard uphill stretch which shortens by very little. Better to preserve strength in view of other asperities.
