카프라니카 프레네스티나 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

really really very tiring

Meeting point

Looking west you can see the vast area of the city of Rome and its province. In the valley below the town of San Gregorio da Sassola and, following on the right side, the city of Tivoli in the middle of the valley.

The Sanctuary of Mentorella is one of the oldest Marian sanctuaries in Europe. Inside the sanctuary there is the cave of San Benedetto, a truly special place: it is a tiny cave which is accessed via a very narrow gap in the rock. Right at the entrance there is a shrine with the bones of the friars. In the sanctuary there is also a small refuge that is always open, with bathrooms and tables.

From the modest top of Monte Calo, 1,152 metres, there is a beautiful panorama both towards Rome and towards the rocky walls of Monte Guadagnolo, recognizable by the towering antennas. Easily reachable from Rome, it is a perfect place for a picnic or to see the stars on beautiful summer evenings and enjoy a refreshing refreshment!

Splendid village perched in the Prenestini mountains. The name already suggests a thousand-year history: from the ancient Praeneste of the Latins to the domination of Roman noble families such as the Capranica. Far from the chaos of the city, here you can enjoy an atmosphere of peace and relaxation. The white pizza in the pizzeria in the main square is unmissable.

Small shelter always open with a table, toilets and trash cans.

Once at the Sanctuary it is worth looking out at the Grotta di San Benedetto. A small cave in the mountain at the entrance to which there is a case with the bones of some Benedictines.
