20의 멘타나가지 명소 & 주요 장소

It's a beautiful and varied trail... but watch out for wild boars! And then... why doesn't Roma Natura clean up the illegal landfills? It's true that people are uncivilized, but the institutions must clean up, otherwise the degradation will worsen.

Very nice with some roads without traffic

Mentana, 20 km from Rome, is a village in the Roman Sabina area known for its Sabina DOP extra virgin olive oil and the Macchia di Gattaceca Nature Reserve. The meeting between Charlemagne and Pope Leo III and the Battle of Mentana in 1867, led by Garibaldi, took place here. The village preserves historical monuments such as the Baronial Palace and the Capuchin Convent. The MuGa – Garibaldino Museum commemorates the heroes of the Risorgimento. Mentana is also famous for festivals dedicated to culinary specialties such as ciammella a cancellu and maccheroni a centonara, and for traditional celebrations such as that of Sant'Antonio Abate.

The nature reserve extends over about a thousand hectares between the Tiber Valley and the Cornicolani Mountains, in the Roman Sabina. The landscape is hilly, with pasture areas, crops and fragments of woods, remnants of the original forests. The area is known for its botanical value and for karst phenomena such as caves and sinkholes, including the Pozzo del Merro, one of the deepest in the world. The reserve also preserves historical evidence, from prehistory to the Middle Ages.

From here the climb to Monte Morra begins.

Strada Bianca connecting via della Cesarina and via di Casal Boccone. The first stretch is a dirt road up to the bridge that crosses the ring road; then continues on a beaten path between cultivated fields. It ends with an easy singletrack up to Via Casal Boccone skirting the Almaviva building.

"The Marcellina Gold Mine was strongly desired by the architect and photographer Romolo Belvedere and created by the Venezuelan artist Luis Gomez de Teran, known for his socially conscious works and who worked on the Marcellina Gold Mine using as the basis for the photographic reportage "The Faces of Stone", created by Belvedere himself in the mid-80s of the last century. The work is a permanent installation and has a dual value: it enhances a decidedly ugly and impactful industrial archeology site (occupies a large part of the mountain ridge) and becomes witness to a collective effort made of work and sacrifices, in which men and women, farmers, miners and shepherds were silent witnesses of an era now over, in which women like Teodora Fornari they were miners, mothers, wives and spent their whole lives in difficult working conditions (https://bussoladiario.com/2021/02/la-miniera-doro-di-marcellina.html)
