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.

Starting point for climbing Monte Puglie. Parking for 2-3 cars is available. Monte Puglie (sometimes called Cocuzzo delle Puglie) is a peak approximately 1,465-1,475 meters high located in Campania, within the Cilento, Vallo di Diano and Alburni National Park. Known for its wild nature and expansive views, it can be reached via challenging hiking trails, often starting from Passo della Sentinella (San Rufo) or San Paolo di Teggiano, passing through places such as Sella del Corticato and the Bosco Vetusto del Cozzo del Rosieddo. Here are the main details about Monte Puglie: Location and Characteristics: It is located in the province of Salerno. The relief features elongated ridges and, in some areas, beech forests. Hiking: The trails are generally considered difficult or for experts, with steep and sometimes exposed sections. A common route is the ring that touches the Cozzo del Rosieddo (1427 m) and Monte Puglie.

Connection with the Certosa

It is the place of spirit, art, culture and silence.

Unfortunately, the road to Monte Cervati has been completely paved.

The municipality of Sacco offers the possibility of pitching a tent in this small park. There are no showers, just a fountain and some tables, but as we all know, we don't need much. A wonderful initiative; it would be fantastic to find an area like this in every municipality.

Amazing place along the silent road, worth a break

Here begins the climb to Mount Cervati (1,898 m above sea level), the highest mountain in the Campania region. It's 24 kilometers, seven of which are on asphalt and the remainder on dirt. Conquering the panoramic summit and arriving at the sanctuary of the Madonna della Neve are worth every drop of sweat!
