트레치나 최고의 사이클링 경로

From the train station up to the historic center, it's quite a climb, but the effort is worthwhile – even if you're not going to see the Christ the Redeemer statue. Beautiful streets and squares. There are supposed to be 44 churches, but most of them are probably closed.

A 21-meter-high statue has stood atop Monte San Biagio since 1965. It is considered a landmark of Maratea. However, its erection was controversial among local politicians at the time. Originally, an iron cross stood on this spot, commemorating the defense against Napoleon's troops in 1806. It was later replaced by this statue of Jesus, whose face does not bear the typical features of Jesus, as his hair and beard are short. He looks more like an angel—a savior who points with open arms to the Creator in heaven and with both feet firmly planted on the ground, symbolizing the acceptance of sinners.

Train station, an excellent arrival/departure point for exploring Campania, Basilicata, and the Tyrrhenian Calabria. Excellent connections to Salerno, Naples, and Reggio Calabria.

The old Lauria station is part of the historic Lagonegro-Spezzano Albanese narrow-gauge line, inaugurated in sections between 1915 and 1931 and operating until the 1970s. This branch of the railway crossed the picturesque landscapes of southwestern Basilicata, connecting small villages and navigating challenging terrain with rack railway sections and numerous viaducts.

A very impressive statue (about 20 meters tall) high above the sea (about 600 meters). Great view of the sea and the coast.
