アルピーノのおすすめツーリングルート

A charming Roman/Medieval village. You can admire the ancient walls of the acropolis of Civitavecchia di Arpino and the tower of the famous composer Cicero. The site offers a magnificent view of the Liri Valley and glimpses of the Comino Valley.

The settlement's origins date back at least to Roman times: some scholars believe the name derives from the Latin "Forum Laeta" (beautiful market), indicating the presence of an ancient livestock market and its favorable location along the routes between the Liri and Comino Valleys. Forglieta was inhabited until the 1970s, when the last 80 or so residents moved to larger towns due to depopulation and the closure of services such as schools and shops. The village extends along three main streets, with stone houses, stables, cellars, and a small church (dedicated to Sant'Amasio), built on the ruins of a pagan temple. Today, many houses are in ruins, but some are still occasionally inhabited.

Small square to the right of the waterfall with a view and refreshments in the adjacent bar

Water point 💧 present in front of the abbey... very suggestive place!

Lovely little town with good coffee and bars.

It is found along the path of San Benedetto going up from Arpino
