Point of extreme charm. Mandatory stop!

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 bike ride along the Furlo Gorge is a must. very few cars exciting environment,

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 Furlo Gorge is an impervious Apennine gorge carved out by the Candigliano river, where high limestone walls rise overlooking the river. The ancient Via Flaminia passed here and the remains of a Roman tunnel dug into the rock are still visible today. The area has been declared a State Natural Reserve, it is possible to admire rocky outcrops of great geological interest, and you can find various species of wild animals, including hawks, eagles and roe deer.

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.
