팔레스타인 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

A charming place just a stone's throw from Rome. Don't touch the tuff walls as you enter the canyon; they're very delicate. Thank you.

The "Oak of Pierluigi da Palestrina" is a monumental downy oak located in the Cannuccete Valley, in the Prenestini Mountains, not far from Palestrina. This centuries-old tree, over 20 meters tall and with a circumference of over six meters, is considered one of the oldest and most impressive trees in Lazio. It is estimated to be between 500 and 700 years old. According to local tradition, the famous musician Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina loved to go to the foot of this oak tree to find inspiration and moments of reflection. Legend has it that the composer meditated and perhaps composed some of his works in the shade of this tree, although these details are not confirmed by historical sources.

The Madonna della Tivora (or Madonna of the Snow) usually refers to the venerated image of the Madonna present in the small sanctuary, also known as the Madonna della Neve, located in the Rocca Priora area, near Colle di Fuori, in the Castelli Romani region. Rocca Priora has supplied Rome with snow and ice since imperial times, and the population prayed to the Madonna for good snowfall, essential to the local economy. The August festival in honor of the Madonna is still deeply felt today, culminating in a nighttime procession and a suggestive artificial snowfall.

pay close attention to the ongoing forest felling and the path can be very muddy in case of rain

The Rocca dei Colonna was erected on the highest point of the acropolis in 970 AD. The initial building had a square plan with corner towers also with a square base, and housed a cylindrical tower used as a prison. Some famous people were imprisoned there, including San Berardo, bishop of the Marsi, Jacopone da Todi and Corradino di Svevia. Over the centuries, the fortress was destroyed several times; in 1482, the fortress was renovated and the event is remembered by the inscription on the turret of the small bridge "magnificus dominus Stephanus Columna readificavit civitatem cum monte et arte MCDLXXXII".
