템피우/템피오 파우사니아 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Unfortunately, the waterfalls can only be admired in spring; in autumn, everything here is dry and more of a mosquito paradise. Otherwise, however, it's beautiful!

😍

Beautiful view.

Beautiful route. What made it a bit difficult for me was the path full of rocks and roots...but beautiful rock/granite formations...

The patronage of "Our Lady of the Snows" – which, in my experience, is not all that common – indicates that this church was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, but not, as is usually the case, associated with one of her classic feast days (such as the Name of Mary, the Nativity, the Assumption, or as Queen of the Rosary). Rather, the search for the origin of "Our Lady of the Snows" leads us far back in church history to the fourth or fifth century, and geographically speaking, away from Sardinia to the Italian capital. On August 5, 363, at the site where the magnificent church of Santa Maria Maggiore stands today, the so-called "Miracle of the Snows" occurred. That is, on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay on the ground in the morning because Our Lady wanted a church dedicated to her to be built on that spot. She communicated this wish in a nighttime vision to a wealthy couple – who financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, Pope Liberius. The Roman church has the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica), and is the origin of all churches and chapels bearing this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, the date of August 5, the day of the church's consecration (in the year 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is a "non-obligatory memorial."

It's not really a "via ferrata" - but you need to have the ability to find your way and should be able to climb a bit to get to the top (and back down safely).

Even though it gets a bit steeper at this point and you might need to use your hands to help, this section was still easy to walk in October despite the rain. And the path is always visible. With good shoes and a bit of fitness, this climb can be mastered quite easily.

I would say intermediate + duration longer than 2 hours
