베키아노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 산 정상

Relatively low peak with a nice view! Warning: the climb from San Lorenzo to Vaccoli is very rewarding and fun if you consider the altitude at which you move. If you want something more challenging you can climb from S. Maria del Giudice and choose the path on the right at the fork marked with 2 blue sections that climbs with short rocky sections and loose rocks. There are some easy climbing sections and if you want you can add others if you move away from the path for a moment. Obviously be careful if you intend to climb up, it is necessary to check what you take in your hands because not everything you touch is good, there are flakes and rocks "only supported".

I recommend using poles, and not doing it downhill shortly after the rain like I did (risking my ankle going off)

During a mountain bike ride, some beautiful views are always nice!

The faeta is always safe on clear days you have a priceless view

Although of modest altitude this "hill" offers a very beautiful 360 view, furthermore climbing from San Vincenzo to Vaccoli gives the impression of being on a real mountain because the path, which can only be followed with 2 legs, no wheels, is very rocky !

Beautiful climb from Campo Croce. Stunning panorama from Lake Massaciuccoli to Livorno with Pisa and its river in the middle

The ancient settlement is located in the Lucca area, but near the border with the province of Pisa, near the Passo di Croce where the old communication route between Pisa and Lucca passed and can be reached on foot from the pass itself. Some authors identify the area as the Hermitage of San Giuliano di Spelonca, others as S. Giorgio. The hermitage was founded in 1190 by the black hermits (by the priests magister Johannes de Petris, later called Honestus, and Dulcis). The founders were not hermits in the classical sense who chose solitude and meditation (eremos = alone), but groups of monks who decided to live together like the apostles, in poverty, in rather isolated places, even in contrast with the ecclesiastical institutions. They also dedicated themselves to the religious assistance of the population who lived in these places and who had difficulty reaching the churches. There were many hermit settlements in Tuscany and especially on the Monti Pisani, which some identify with the Mons heremita, which also appears in a fresco in the Camposanto monumentale of Pisa and in another in the church of S. Agostino in S. Gimignano. The many legends that exist regarding the presence of hermits on the Monti Pisani at the beginning of the Christian era and in the early Middle Ages are not, to this day, supported by documentary or archaeological evidence. The most evident construction currently is represented by a small single-hall church, from a later period than the foundation; the facade and the barrel vault are from 1800, but the structures, which also show a later extension that could have eliminated a previous apse, are of medieval origin. An uncommon case, there are interesting structures in its vicinity dug directly into the rock including a cistern with a quadrangular mouth, dug partly into the rock and partly into the cave room by means of a retaining wall, on which there are also stone supports and notches in the rock (probable support of wooden structures), a staircase with holes for a gate or door and a circular basin surrounded by channels, post holes and joints; furthermore, base rooms for probable structures of the hermitage are visible. Similar structures also seem to be present on the right side beyond the opening of the cave. From Comunedipisa.it

Mount Faeta. The second peak of the ridge, it takes its name from the beech woods that once abounded on its slopes. Source: https://www.montepisano.travel/poi/monte-faeta/
