올레지오 카스텔로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 산 정상

Mottarone Park Excursion, approximately 35 km. Departure from the center of Gignese (VB), 700 meters above sea level, to the summit of Mottarone (1,492 meters), through forests of birch, beech, chestnut, and maple trees. From the summit, you can admire the seven lakes in 360 degrees. From here, the view stretches to infinity: under clear skies, from the Maritime Alps to Monviso, from the closer Monte Rosa massif to the Swiss Alps, all the way to the Po Valley. A unique landscape just an hour from Milan, and on the return journey, passing by Monte Falò, downhill dirt roads, single tracks, and unforgettable forests. 😉 #mottarone #lagomaggiore #gignese #stresa #cycling #hiking #ebike #gravelbike

A beautiful renovation in a peaceful place

At the top of Mount Barro (581 m) there is an ancient medieval village, born around the church of Santa Maria Annunziata. Probably built on the ruins of a castle, this church preserves an apse with a stone dated 1484. The houses, made of local stone and close to each other, were once home to farmers who cultivated fields and vineyards. The last inhabitant left the village in 1977, marking the end of its rural life. Today, every 1st May, Mount Barro comes alive with the traditional Fiora festival. This popular event, inspired by the ancient gesture of lovers exchanging bouquets of flowers, celebrates the community's first spring outing, transforming the village into a place of celebration and memories.

The German-language television series “Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity” - which I can recommend without reservation - is dedicated to the places with UNESCO World Heritage sites on all continents and eras in short film clips. This includes the “SACRI MONTI” in northern Italy (there are a total of eight of these “Holy Mountains” in Piedmont and a ninth in Lombardy), which are presented to the culture-loving viewer in a 15-minute clip. This can be accessed in the ARD media library at the following link: => https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/heilige-berge-in-piemont-italien-folge-396/3sat/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS84ODgxMzc2
