https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Mai from https://www.ulyxes.it/monte-mai-ee: The name of the Monti Mai certainly derives from the Latin word "maior", large. Some ancient papers and the same reports of Giustino Fortunato, illustrious explorer of the Picentini, also report the diction Maj. Main ridge of the homonymous mountain group, elongated in the ESE-WNW direction, the peak is located at the convergence of three ridges, impervious and interrupted by gaps, rocky crags and secondary peaks. The Monti Mai belong to the westernmost subgroup of the Monti Picentini, one of the largest mountain groups in southern Italy and part of the homonymous regional park. They are characterized by Mesozoic carbonate platform rocks and to a lesser extent by Triassic dolomites and marls. The vegetation that covers the Monti Mai is mainly represented by beech trees that cover the upper part, over 800 m, and chestnut trees on the slopes. The fauna, very rich, like that of all the Picentini Mountains, consists of large mammals, such as the wolf, the fox, the badger, the wild boar; birds of prey such as the peregrine falcon, the buzzard, the sparrowhawk, the goshawk; the black woodpecker, long-eared owl, dipper, kingfisher; amphibians such as the Apennine frog, the European green toad, the spectacled salamander, the fire salamander.

Summit of Monte Mai, where you can admire a breathtaking view that ranges from the Gulf of Salerno to Vesuvius, with an overview of the highest peaks of the Picentini Mountains.

Really suggestive place that deserves to be visited.

Walls Civita di Ogliara, accessed from a dirt road to the left of the picnic area

Immersed in the Bosco di Serino, in the locality of Ogliara, on a small plateau bordered by the river Sabato, there is a wall with a circumference of about 2 kilometers, known as “Civita di Ogliara”. According to an ancient tradition that began with Cluverio, in the seventeenth century, the "Civita di Ogliara" would be the walls of the city of "Sabazia", capital of the Samnites of Irpinia and from which the Sabatini would take their name. Cluverio writes: “Of the rivers that starting from the territory of the Irpini flow into the Volturno, the first is the Sabatus river, now commonly called Sabato. This river had this name from so ancient times that the Sabatini population took its name from it ... It seems that there was a fortified place near the river, called Sabazia, from which its inhabitants took the name of Sabatini . Where they were is uncertain. However, it is believed that this place was located between two fortified towns, which are commonly called Terranova and Prata ”. The myth is fueled by Bella Bona who claims that "Sabatia" was founded by a mythical progenitor of Noah who survived the universal flood named Sabatio and that the city was located in the valley between the mountains of Serino in the place called Ogliara, with citizens Sabatini. The myth also envelops what is said of its destruction; some authors say that "Sabatia" was destroyed by Hannibal during the Second Punic War, others, on the contrary, argue that it was destroyed by the Romans to punish the Sabatini who became Hannibal's allies, others still want it destroyed by Silla at the time of Social War (89 BC). Beyond the myth, no historical source from Tito Livio to other ancient writers has ever mentioned the existence of the city of "Sabatia" and nettampoco the link between this city and the walls of the Ogliara area. Even the historian Francesco Scandone has excluded this correlation, arguing, instead, that the "Civita di Ogliara" is a stronghold dating back to the time of the civil war between Count Siconolfo and Radelchi for the dominion of the Duchy of Benevento, wanted by Radelchi to to prevent the advance of an enemy army which from Salerno could have invaded the valley of Sabato. The hypothesis advanced by Scandone was confirmed by various archaeologists who were interested in the walls and towers of Civita Ogliara, starting with Woolley and ending at Pasquale Natella. https://www.sguardisullirpinia.it/guide-turistiche-360/serino/visita-serino/civita-di-ogliara.html

Beautiful sanctuary carved into the rock! Stunning panoramic view

On the slopes of Mount Terminio, in the territory of Serino, there is the ancient sanctuary of the Santissimo Salvatore, entirely dug into the rock and adapted for liturgical and residential use for a small hermit community. The cave seems to have been excavated around the end of 1300 by a Benedictine religious community that resided at the time in the Abbey of Cerreto. Inside are the statues of the Holy Savior and of San Michele Arcangelo. The Grotta del SS. Salvatore was formerly called the cave of the Angel or of San Michele. It is located, together with other caves, on what is called the path of the Angel. It is flanked by a hermitage that served as a refuge for pilgrims and all visitors who took the arduous path that led to the cave, reachable in about 3 hours of walking.
