カッパドキアのおすすめツーリングルート

シンブルイニ山脈の中心部に佇む美しい小さな湖

A charming little village nestled in the mountains. A must-see!

It is a small reservoir, or lake, located on the Campo Ceraso karst plateau, within the Monti Simbruini Regional Natural Park, in the upper Fioio Valley, between Monte Tarino and the Serra di San Michele. This area is characterized by a mountainous landscape with large beech forests, sinkholes, and swallow holes, typical of karst terrain. The area once marked the border between the Papal States and the Kingdom of Naples, and the ancient boundary stones can still be seen today. An unattended refuge is also located near the lake.

Reaching the parking lot of the Sanctuary of the Holy Trinity requires a challenging climb. The view from up here, however, makes all the effort worthwhile.

Descending through a beautiful beech forest from the SS Trinità parking lot, you reach the Cippi Papalini. Two centuries ago, they were the border between the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and the Papal States, now Abruzzo and Lazio. We are also at the intersection of the three provinces of Rome, L'Aquila, and Frosinone.

Always lots of cows grazing. Beautiful

The Church of Santa Lucia is the most significant monument of Magliano de' Marsi (AQ)

On the dirt road that leads from the square of the Santissima Trinità to Campo della Pietra there is this wooden tower. It can be reached with an easy, undemanding walk through a splendid beech forest. From the top of the turret you have a beautiful view of the surrounding forest.
