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).

The Porta Nuova is located in the southeastern part of Assisi, the impressive old town with its old churches and medieval buildings. This impressive, old historical building represents one of the eight city gates.

Colle San Rufino, located in the northern area of the Monte Subasio Regional Park and a stone's throw from Assisi, offers breathtaking views of the city, Mount Subasio and the Umbrian Valley.

View extends to Assisi and over the whole wide valley. Wonderful flowers 🌺 in May.

There are not only tens of thousands of flowers here, but also many free-running horses 🐎. In May with many foals 🥰.
