Castrovillari is a city full of stories to tell; Roman, Albanian and Catholic. It is the fourth most populous city of Cosenza. The city is crossed by the Parchi Calabresi cycle path and surrounded by mountains, making it an extraordinary place for cycling enthusiasts.

The Aragonese castle of Castrovillari is an imposing late medieval complex, renovated in 1490 by the will of King Ferdinand of Aragon. It has four cylindrical corner towers, an entrance with a stone plaque and was used as a prison until the end of the last century.

Castrovillari is located in the heart of the Pollino National Park, between the valleys of the rivers Sibari and Lagano and along the cycle path of the parks of Calabria. Its name derives from the Latin Castrum Villarum, "fortress of the villas", dating back to the era of Roman colonization. Of particular interest is the Aragonese Castle, built on the hill of the ancient village.

Castrovillari, during the Roman era called Castrum Villarum, is a city located south of the Pollino massif. Here it is possible to visit the "infamous tower", which is present on the coat of arms of the city, and various chapels and monumental churches.

We are almost at 1600 meters and from here we have a beautiful panoramic view of Monte Timpone di Sant'Angelo, Colle della Maddalena and Monte Scaletra.
