コルレート・ペルティカラのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Good view from the church terrace

A brief rest to say hello to the locals

the hike is marked but not enough, but let's say it's very easy to orient yourself just go straight. it's a fairly open path, only a small stretch covered by trees, so when it's hot it's better to bring a hat. bring something to eat because I don't think there were any refreshment points. fantastic place with a peaceful atmosphere. the day I went, which was June, there were a few insects, but they were harmless.

After the narrow alleys and steps through the old town, the climb to the rocks is worthwhile. Even in rainy weather, the rocks are easily accessible via iron stairs. In heavy rain, every small alley becomes a rushing stream.

Pietrapertosa, fabulous place, welcoming and very polite people! a magnificent place for those looking for relaxation

It is the Sacro Monte of Viggiano, at 1725 m above sea level, the place where the most important Marian sanctuary in the region stands, the one dedicated to the Black Madonna, queen of Viggiano, officially proclaimed "Protector" of Basilicata in 1991 by Pope John Paul II. Holiday The celebrations in honor of the Black Madonna are divided into two moments of the year: on the first Sunday of May the statue is brought, inside a shrine, from the center of Viggiano to the sanctuary of the mountain. On the first Sunday of September, the statue does the reverse route. This celebration is preceded by a procession (of the pilgrim) held on the previous Saturday.

From up here you have a wonderful view

Among the most picturesque places in the Small Lucanian Dolomites Regional Park, Pietrapertosa is a jewel set among the rocks, from here excellent routes and trails to go on by MTB.
