Petina is perhaps one of the most mountainous villages in Campania. It sits directly on the slopes of the Alburni Mountains, completely surrounded by centuries-old chestnut groves. The village is very small and offers a grocery store, almost always open and well-stocked, a restaurant renowned for its local dishes, and a bar with tables in a beautiful courtyard.

The views along the road are breathtaking

I hope you get a chance to meet Ettore, the volunteer who runs the observatory and currently the only person in the world who knows how to use the telescope inside. Spending a night here on an observing day must be fantastic.

Truly a godsend for us cyclists to take a break. Surrounded by greenery, sheltered from the sun and at 900 m above sea level. Truly the best!
