"Death is not the end, but only a very specific end: namely, the end of a first, provisional period of life and the beginning of a never-ending new epoch. Jesus said, 'My kingdom is not of this world.' Therefore, there is another world. Not only his disciples, but also his opponents believed in this other world. The doctor of the law, for example, asks him what he must do 'to gain eternal life.' (...) Precisely because it lasts forever, this life is so precious that everything... of the present world pales in comparison." (Text by Albino Luciani / Pope John Paul I)

It is the destination of the evocative Cammino di San Benedetto which leads from his hometown of Norcia to the abbey of Montecassino which houses his tomb, passing through Subiaco where the Saint lived for a long time and where the monastery of Santa Scolastica and that of the Sacro Speco are located.

Passage point for the Meta and other paths

Climb that requires training, about 9km at 5/6% average gradient, but the view you see during the climb is worth the effort. Unfortunately they do not allow bikes in and currently there are no parking spaces for bikes, but you can take some photos.

Montecassino Abbey

(1967mt) The Monaci Pass is located on the border between Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise, crossed since ancient times by pilgrims, traders and bandits. The monks used to place a stone when they reached the pass. Over the years, piles of a couple of meters high have formed, clearly visible in the center of the plateau, making it a characteristic sign of recognition. The name of the Monaci Pass comes from a legend: three monks died during a storm while trying to cross the pass. The story is plausible, given the difficulty in identifying it if you come from the west and there is fog, and considering that historically the mule track that passes it connected the territories of the important abbeys of S. Vincenzo al Volturno and Montecassino. This very particular territory is the kingdom of a historic herd of Apennine chamois, which performs acrobatics between leaps, cliffs and steep meadows, grazing on grass or resting comfortably on sheer walls.

The monumental complex of the abbey of San Vincenzo al Volturno is a little-known evocative place. It is made up of the new church, which can be reached by following the dirt road between the cypress trees, and the archaeological area where the remains of the ancient monastery are preserved. The arches are part of the new complex. Visits to the park are by reservation and for information you can write to the following email: info@criptadiepifanio.it.

The Abbey of Montecassino, founded by San Benedetto da Norcia in 529 AD, is one of the oldest monasteries in Italy and the cradle of Western monasticism. Located in Cassino, between Rome and Naples, it was a spiritual and cultural center of great importance in the Middle Ages. Destroyed in 1944 during the battle of Monte Cassino, it was then faithfully rebuilt according to the original plans.
