A brief explanation of the patronage of 'MARY OF THE SNOW', which visitors don't encounter very often: This takes us far back in church history to the fourth/fifth century, and geographically to Rome. On August 5, 363, the so-called "miracle of the snow" occurred at the site where the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore now stands. That is to say, on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay there in the morning because the Virgin Mary wished to have a church dedicated to her built on that spot. She conveyed this wish in a vision to a wealthy couple – who subsequently initiated and financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, who at that time was Pope Liberius. The Roman church holds the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica) and is the origin of all churches and chapels with this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, August 5th, the feast day of the church's consecration (in the year 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is an optional memorial. Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome was the focus of international attention last year because Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday 2025, had chosen this church as his final resting place.

The "Petratetta Bridge" is a natural bridge made of boulders that connects the two banks of the Calore River, located in the Calore Gorges, near Felitto, in the province of Salerno. It can be reached via a trail starting from Remolino, or from another trail starting from the historic center of Felitto. The bridge marks an interesting crossing point for hikers walking through the gorges, also offering the opportunity to admire the "Marmitte dei Giganti," grooves carved by water in the rock.

Every time you return you always feel the same amazement at the beauty and (fairly) uncontaminated nature. The path is not difficult, however, non-slip shoes are always recommended.

Indescribable, you have to visit it! A few tens of meters from the entrance you have to leave your bike and continue on foot. Guaranteed show! Be careful of slippery rocks inside the gorges, use suitable shoes.

Near the small church of Sant'Elena there is a medieval bridge to cross the Calore river. Here a spring throws its waters into the river, and it is possible to continue the path to reach Grava di Vesalo, where the Milenzio stream disappears underground.

Ring route of medium difficulty starting from the heat gorges of Remolino which runs along the river for the first 5 km. Along the way you come across a medieval Cilento humpback bridge, a place of obligatory transit throughout the Middle Ages and still used today. At the end of the path, enjoy a nice bath in the throat to cool off with the water at 10 degrees. parking: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.364921,15.257127

The Sanctuary of the Madonna del Cervato is located near the highest peak in Campania, Monte Cervati. The church is a pilgrimage destination, and in the month of July a procession is held that brings the statue of the Madonna della Neve here.

The sanctuary and the cave of the Madonna della Neve are enclosed in a typically karst environment. High jagged rock walls, sinkholes and caves make this place fascinating. This place is absolutely worth a visit, even if you are not a believer.
