コルレートモンフォルテのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

I hope you get a chance to meet Ettore, the volunteer who runs the observatory and currently the only person in the world who knows how to use the telescope inside. Spending a night here on an observing day must be fantastic.

Near the large rocky spur of Figliolo it is necessary to climb to reach the summit, where the statue of the Madonna marks the highest point. From here you can enjoy a spectacular 360 degree view. WARNINGS for those who want to reach the summit of Figliolo (see photo!) For the more adventurous you can climb to the top of Figliolo, to do so go around the wall towards SE climbing on a gravelly trail up to a crack between the rocks. You will find a huge boulder stuck between the walls, you have to go beyond it and you have to climb in this crack between the rocks (you need a bit of agility and caution especially when going down). You climb up reaching the summit ridge, paying attention to a slightly exposed section and avoiding the side where more friable rock is visible (yellow color). From the Madonna on the summit you can read Monte Figliolo 1337 m. The view is phenomenal and worth the little "climb" but, it is NOT for everyone, you need good mountaineering experience and you must not suffer from vertigo.

Near the Sinkhole under Serra Carpinrto is the sinkhole Cavaggione. Beware of the opening in the ground !!!!

Sinkhole under Serra Carpineto: this cavity descends into the depths through a large meander with very high walls. On the bottom, which is 117m lower than the entrance and half a kilometer away from it, there is a perennial lake with a siphon. On the opposite shore of the lake there is a narrow, unexplored crack from which cold air blows [Atlas of the Caves of Campania, CP 488]. The visit should NOT be improvised. You must be properly equipped with torches, sturdy shoes, gloves as well as appropriate cave experience.

On the summit of Costa Palomba there are remains dating back to more than 2000 years ago. According to scholars, the large sculpture is a funerary monument to celebrate a warrior hero, but there is also a basin used as a sacrificial altar and the remains of fortification walls.

Cima Il Figliolo is a rocky outcrop in the municipality of Petina. At more than 1300 meters above sea level, it offers a splendid view of Monte Panormo, the highest peak of the Alburni Mountains, and of the Tanagro valley.

The Madonna della Montagna is the name by which the Sanctuary of the Madonna delle Grazie is known, located in the Alburni Mountains, in the municipality of Sant'Angelo a Fasanella, in the province of Salerno. It can be easily reached from Casone Aresta or from the Ausoneto refuge.

Karst sinkhole located in the territory of Petina, it is one of the many naturalistic attractions of the Alburni Mountains, in the National Park. The cave is more than 200 meters deep and it is necessary to have adequate speleological equipment. There is a picnic area outside.
