Cima Blockhaus: A walking experience in the heart of the Maiella The Blockhaus peak, in the heart of the Maiella massif, is an unmissable destination for mountain lovers. Access to the actual peak is reserved for hikers, with a pleasant walk of about half an hour on a comfortable path. A landscape sculpted by time The peak, covered with mountain pines, is an ancient plateau shaped by millennia of erosion and geological movements. Once submerged by the sea, it preserves traces of a distant past, like a coral island that emerged and transformed over time. Testimonies of history and brigandage The name "Blockhaus" recalls a wooden fort built in the 19th century to counter post-unification brigandage. A breathtaking view From the peak, enjoy a breathtaking view that ranges from the peaks of the Apennines to the Adriatic Sea, far from the hustle and bustle of the arrival of the Giro d'Italia, which takes place further down.

The Pelino bivouac is one of the most famous bivouacs, if not the bivouac, in the Apennines. It is spartan and essential: eight wooden planks on which to place the mattress and spend an unforgettable night at an altitude of 2,700 metres. There are few places from which you can see the sun rise over the Adriatic and set over the Tyrrhenian Sea. A unique place that is worth all the effort to reach it.

Mountain peaks in the Majello Group (Abruzzo) with a magnificent view of the Mediterranean Sea, among others. Very worthwhile ski tour from Passo Leonardo. At the top is the Bivaco Pelino.

Arrival of the ninth stage of the Giro d'Italia 2022. Its name is of German origin and means "house of stones". The name was coined by the Austrian military referring to a stone fort located on top of the mountain built for defensive purposes. The debut of the Blockhaus at the Giro d'Italia took place on 31 May 1967, on that occasion the stage was won by a very young Eddy Merckx

Monte Amaro is located at 2,793 meters, and is the highest peak in the Maiella National Park. The climb is challenging, especially if you choose to undertake the climb from Fara S. Martino – in this case there are 2,400 meters of altitude difference to tackle, the highest in the entire Apennine chain (to be tackled only by experts and professionals). Going up it is possible to spot the Abruzzo chamois, and around the month of September you can also hear the roars of the deer.

An incredibly beautiful mountain to climb.
