アンティーコリコッラード周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

really really very tiring

wonderful place, the trail is very easy

It is a challenging but absolutely wonderful path, to be followed like the ancient pilgrims, in silence and prayer...

The path is dedicated to Pope John Paul II who used to take walks in the little frequented areas of the Prenestini mountains. The route is not very demanding, except in the final part at the foot of the sanctuary, and crosses a wooded area of considerable interest. It is recommended to walk it especially in spring when the bottom of the wood is covered with many species of flowers and the Falconara ditch is full of water.

The Sanctuary of Mentorella is one of the oldest Marian sanctuaries in Europe. Inside the sanctuary there is the cave of San Benedetto, a truly special place: it is a tiny cave which is accessed via a very narrow gap in the rock. Right at the entrance there is a shrine with the bones of the friars. In the sanctuary there is also a small refuge that is always open, with bathrooms and tables.

Mandela is located in the heart of the Aniene Valley. Mandela, originally known as Cantalupo Bardella in the Middle Ages, changed its name after 1870. This village was a fiefdom granted to the Orsini by Pope Celestine III. Over the centuries, it passed from the hands of the Orsini to the Nunez and then to the Marquises Del Gallo of Roccagiovine. In the 19th century, Giulia Bonaparte created a literary salon frequented by artists and men of culture in Mandela. The village is famous for its local cuisine, with typical products such as polenta with sausages and ribs, fettuccine, nociata, anise donuts and wine biscuits.

Pizzo Pellecchia, with its 1330 meters, is the second peak of the Lucretili mountains. Pizzo Pellecchia and the top of Monte Pellecchia are part of the same wide mountain ridge and for this reason they have the same name. The name Pellecchia, in fact, derives from "penniculus" (pen), to indicate a place located on a steep hill.

These splendid lakes are a testimony of the karst phenomenon on the Lucretili mountains. The largest, the Fraturno lake, exposed to the sun, the smallest enclosed in a deep sinkhole. Immersing yourself in the Fraturno waters is a unique experience if you overcome the initial skepticism of the muddy bottom!
