칸나라‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪17‬개의 천연기념물

Franziskusweg에 있는 좋은 휴식처입니다. 대피소에서 하룻밤을 묵을 수도 있습니다. 이 샘물은 공식적으로 식수로 지정되어 있지 않으며, 오히려 마시는 것이 금지되어 있지만, 저는 아직 괜찮습니다. 늦은 저녁에 이 글을 쓰고 있는데, 오늘 점심때 약 1.5리터의 물을 마셨습니다.

동명의 정상에 자리한 Croce di Sasso Piano라고 불리는 이 신성한 작은 기념물 앞에서, 이곳에 머무르는 이들에게 아시시의 성 프란치스코에 대한 짧은 성찰을 제공하고 싶습니다: + „그리고 우리는 당신께 [하느님 아버지] 감사드립니다, ... 당신의 십자가와 피와 죽음을 통해, 포로였던 우리를 구원하고자 하셨기 때문입니다.“ (NbR XXIII, 3)

There is an old well here with a nymph in it. Unfortunately the water is not drinkable

13 meters deep in such a tiny mirror!!!

Small artesian lake 15 meters deep and with a diameter of about 25 metres. There is a legend about the suggestive body of spring water. The story on the border between legend and mystery tells that the lake was formed following the fall into the abyss of a farmhouse of a greedy old farmer, named Chiarò, who on the day of Saint Anna, decided to thresh. It is said that Chiarò was not careful to observe the religious calendar and its holidays while his wife was a woman with a charitable soul. While the farmer was threshing together with his workers, his wife was warned by the voice of an angel that she had to flee because she would drown. While the farmhouse sank together with her husband, the woman ran away with her children in her arms. She realized she was being chased by the water and at that moment the angel appeared to her again and advised her to abandon her youngest son because as he grew up he would become greedy and stingy like his father. The woman managed to save herself and right where the child was abandoned the smaller lake called Aisillo took shape.

summit of Mount Subasio. 360° panoramic view

The mountain Monte Subasio, the local mountain of Assisi, is about 1,290 meters high and is an ancient and mystical mountain. Since early Christian times, its caves have been home to many ascetics and hermits, and its forests have been crossed by monks who settled there over time. Of course, among these monks was Saint Francis. The mountain has a “rounded top”, a huge summit plateau and this offers a breathtaking panoramic view that is second to none. During our hike in October 2023, we were even able to see wild horses in the wild up there.

The cross at the summit of the Sasso Piano (Croce di Sasso Piano) at 1124 m stands on a grassy saddle and offers the hiker a breathtaking panoramic view of the Umbrian landscape and the old town of Assisi at its feet. There are also beautiful views of Monte Tezio and Monte Acuto (N-W), Perugia and Lake Trasimeno (W-N-W), whose reflections are only visible in the afternoon, the saddle of Torgiano (W), the wooded hills of Bettona (W-S-W ), in the background the Martani Mountains (S-S-W), on the Bevagna (S) and Foligno (S-S-E) valley sections. The large, massive limestone boulders on the plateau appear to have been shaped for the use of hikers, who find this an ideal place for rest and reflection. "Cities, villages, castles, churches, farmhouses, rivers, streams, blue forests, lonely peaks, rich pastures, gentle olive groves, arduous plains appear from above as if in the magic of a vision" (Arnaldo Fortini).
