몬테 산탄젤로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪4‬개의 협곡

Don't miss, if you're in the Bosco Quarto, with its hornbeams and beech trees, the Ragusa Valley, formed by one of the numerous east-west oriented tectonic fissures that mark the Gargano promontory between the Umbra Forest and the area of San Marco in Lamis. It's very easy to cycle through and can be reached by anyone with a basic understanding of cartography and navigation, yet the impression is of being immersed in an environment profoundly removed from any human presence. On the southern slope, near Coppa del Giglio and Casa Natura, runs what was the line of a Decauville a century ago.

On the Romandato side you almost enter a fantasy, so much is the surprise and the suggestion in front of this short stretch of narrow gorge, with flint and limestone walls up to twenty meters high, which leads to a waterfall. I thank my friend Leo Del Viscio for having introduced me to this very particular place.

Caves characterized by suggestive karst forms, such as stalactites, stalagmites, grooves, corrosion basins and furrows. A spectacle of nature.

Valley made up of large limestone ridges and thick vegetation made up of shrubs. These gullies were created by the corrosive action of rainwater. There are numerous caves to visit in the valley.

Included between two hills, Coppa del Monaco to the north and Coppa del Giglio to the south, the long karst valley, running east-west, called Valle Pezzente in the initial section and Valle Ragusa in the final one, is a small forest paradise in the heart of the largest Fourth Wood. A dense and continuous arboreal vault with large trees is found along the whole valley which can be covered completely given the presence of a forest track on the bottom. The valley can be reached and traveled more easily by entering from the San Marco in Lamis-Cagnano Varano road. At the bottom you live immersed under a thick forest vault among Hornbeams, Maples Cerri giants for which a typical association of the Gargano has been recognized and has been defined as Doronico-carpinetum or Doronico-carpinetum birches. The presence of rich formations of ferns, mosses and lichens is also exceptional, testifying to a hot humid climate, a characterizing element of the place. To get an overview of the valley, you need to look out from one of the two hills that delimit them, the Coppa del Monaco to the north and the Coppa del Giglio to the south. Coppa del Giglio is easier to reach starting from the nearby forest barracks.
