nice and out of the way

Civitanova Alta preserves an almost intact circle of walls, built in part by Comacine masters in the 15th century together with the two towers of Porta S. Paolo (or Zoppa) and Porta Marina, today characterised by a cypress tree that grew spontaneously on its top, and which has become the symbol of the town.

Porta Sant'Angelo, better known as Porta Marina, is one of the four entrance gates to the village of Civitanova Alta (municipality of Civitanova Marche), with its characteristic cypress tree growing within the crenellated band. It was built along with the other gates and the surrounding walls (still virtually intact) in the 14th century.

A truly wonderful discovery, the bike path is slightly uphill, very pleasant. To reach Civitanova Alta, however, you have to tackle a stretch that isn't excessively long, but is quite steep and has a lot of traffic.

The Civitanova Fontespina stretch is also very popular with pedestrians, especially in the summer. In some stretches you need to proceed at a walking pace, pay close attention.
