サンタンジェロ・ル・フラッテのおすすめツーリングルート

山々の間の壮大な通過

Petina is perhaps one of the most mountainous villages in Campania. It sits directly on the slopes of the Alburni Mountains, completely surrounded by centuries-old chestnut groves. The village is very small and offers a grocery store, almost always open and well-stocked, a restaurant renowned for its local dishes, and a bar with tables in a beautiful courtyard.

Pertosa is a small village in the Tanagro Valley, known for its connection to the nearby Pertosa-Auletta Caves. Its stone houses, quiet streets, and valley viewpoints lend it a welcoming, rural atmosphere. Strolling through the center, you'll discover internal courtyards, ancient fountains, and glimpses of the Alburni Mountains.

Auletta is a village overlooking the Tanagro Valley, characterized by a stone historic center, medieval alleys, and panoramic terraces overlooking the Alburni Mountains. Walking or cycling through its streets, you'll find ancient buildings, small squares, and the tranquil atmosphere of the Salerno hinterland.

The Pertosa-Auletta Caves, also known as the Angel Caves, are one of the most fascinating speleological complexes in Campania, famous for their navigable underground river: the only one in Italy and one of the few in Europe. The cave system extends for over three kilometers beneath the Alburni Mountains, through immense chambers, ancient concretions, and natural light effects.

The Lake Pignola cycling and walking path winds along the entire shoreline, offering a flat route perfect for families and cyclists of all ages. Along the route, a WWF-managed reserve enriches the experience with nature, wildlife, and tranquil landscapes. There are several places to rent bicycles or tandems, making the visit easy and accessible even without your own bike.

Absolutely worth a visit, a town that has remained authentic and is unfortunately depopulating, but which has so much to offer.

A climb immersed in the shade of the woods, with several steep sections but also several stretches that allow you to catch your breath.
