카스텔 산탄젤로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪4‬개의 천연기념물

Mountain lake full of life and nestled in a fantastic plateau.

Mount Nuria with its 1,888 meters of height is one of the most important reliefs of the Cicolano mountains. It is a peak that can be reached at any time of the year. In winter it is always better to bring a pair of crampons with you to be able to overcome the steepest and often icy final part. There are many itineraries to reach the top, the simplest and best marked is the one that goes up from Borgo Velino. Coming from the Rascino plains, the walk is certainly splendid but very long.

Rieti is a wonderful city surrounded by uncontaminated nature and rich in water springs, among which the Antiche Fonti di Cottorella stand out. This fascinating spring is located just one kilometer from the historic "Porta Romana" of Rieti and emerges from the slopes of the majestic Monte Belvedere. The very name of this mountain evokes evocative images that capture the attention of those who are on top of its heights, allowing a spectacular view of the Rieti valley below, the majestic Terminillo massif and the winding Velino river.

Splendid thermal complex from the Roman era which bears witness to how the sulphurous waters of Cotilla were exploited since ancient times. To find out the opening times and days, call the municipality of Cittaducale. From the dirt road it is still possible to see the complex and admire its beauty.

Lake Rascino is a karst mountain lake and is the perfect place for a short stop to admire the surrounding landscape.

On the border between the provinces of Rieti and that of L'Aquila is the mountain group of Monte Nuria whose peak reaches 1888 m above sea level.
