A brief explanation of the patronage of 'MARY OF THE SNOW', which visitors don't encounter very often: This takes us far back in church history to the fourth/fifth century, and geographically to Rome. On August 5, 363, the so-called "miracle of the snow" occurred at the site where the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore now stands. That is to say, on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay there in the morning because the Virgin Mary wished to have a church dedicated to her built on that spot. She conveyed this wish in a vision to a wealthy couple – who subsequently initiated and financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, who at that time was Pope Liberius. The Roman church holds the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica) and is the origin of all churches and chapels with this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, August 5th, the feast day of the church's consecration (in the year 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is an optional memorial. Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome was the focus of international attention last year because Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday 2025, had chosen this church as his final resting place.

Among the many natural beauties of Cilento, the Capelli di Venere waterfalls in Casaletto Spartano deserve special mention. The Capelli di Venere waterfalls are among the most beautiful in Campania and are visited from all over Italy. Cilento's most famous waterfall is located within the Capello Oasis. The Capelli di Venere waterfall is formed by the Bussentino, a tributary of the Bussento River. The Capelli di Venere waterfall is a natural spectacle, a union of three elements: the water of the Bussentino flows over the maidenhair fern plant that grows attached to the rock. The Capelli di Venere waterfall has created natural pools in the riverbed where you can even bathe. A dip in the icy waters is a real treat, considering the freezing temperatures even in the middle of August.

Cilento National Park

It is the place of spirit, art, culture and silence.

The water doesn't taste good this time... it looks like it hasn't been serviced in years.

Unfortunately, the road to Monte Cervati has been completely paved.

Amazing place along the silent road, worth a break

waterfall on the moss, various trekking routes start from here
