Easy route on clean and dry paths. Enchanting views

The view when you reach the summit is not surprising, because the summit cross - which seems almost gigantic and can therefore be seen from afar - crowns Monte CATRIA and is unmistakable. But despite its enormous mass, the cross erected here does not seem overwhelming at all; in fact, due to the steel framework construction (the most famous example of which is the Eiffel Tower in Paris), it appears almost delicate.

The Furlo Pass (also known as Gola del Furlo) is a gorge located in the Marche region of central Italy. This spectacular gorge is located along the ancient Via Flaminia, near the Candigliano river, a tributary of the Metauro. The Furlo gorge was formed between the Pietralata (889 m) and Paganuccio (976 m) mountains by the erosion of the Candigliano river. It has been included in a State Nature Reserve since 2001 and is often promoted to tourists in the region as the "Grand Canyon of Italy". The Roman emperor Vespasian had a tunnel built here to facilitate passage on the Via Flaminia at the narrowest point of the gorge. Next to it is a similar, but smaller tunnel dating back to Etruscan times. The Roman tunnel has a length of 38.30 meters and a height of 5.95 meters.

The history of Pietralunga is at least as rich as the variety of names this place has had over the millennia. Founded by the Umbrians with the name of Tufi, it later came under the influence of Rome with the name of Forum Julii Concupiensium. Razed to the ground during the barbarian invasions, it was rebuilt with the name of Plebs Tuphiae. Over time the vast fields that surround it earned it the name of Pratalonga, a name that persisted until the advent of the Kingdom of Italy which Italianized it into Pietralunga.

The area where the town of Pietralunga stands has been inhabited since prehistoric times, however the first inhabited center was founded by the Umbrians while it was the Romans who later left the valley below to settle in today's position. The current town has a typical medieval appearance with the oldest nucleus developing around the Rocca and the Parish Church of Santa Maria.
