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.

really really very tiring

Between the towns of Colle Rampo and Polledrara, about 6 km from Paliano, there is this fortified farmhouse with a 13th-century square tower. The Sacco river valley has been the obligatory passage point between Lazio and Campania since the Roman period. The isolated towers, built inland at strategic points, formed a system of garrison and optical signaling between them. The de' Piscoli tower was the lookout outpost of the Prenestina and Latina roads. In the Middle Ages it was the obligatory passage to enter the Palianese territory, given that the road that led to Paliano passed over the Ponte della Mola, where there was a sentry who made people pay the crossing fee, called pontatico.

tower that seems to come out of nowhere :)

A beautiful passage near Paliano, to reach this fortified farmhouse with a 13th century square tower.

It is a challenging but absolutely wonderful path, to be followed like the ancient pilgrims, in silence and prayer...

The path is dedicated to Pope John Paul II who used to take walks in the little frequented areas of the Prenestini mountains. The route is not very demanding, except in the final part at the foot of the sanctuary, and crosses a wooded area of considerable interest. It is recommended to walk it especially in spring when the bottom of the wood is covered with many species of flowers and the Falconara ditch is full of water.
