The wonderful Castelluccio

Highlight • Natural Monument

Castelluccio has a particular charm. Little Tibet, with Mount Vettore as a backdrop to the plateau (1400m altitude) which, in the various seasons of the year, takes on different shades, from the pure white of the snow to the multicolored effects of the flowers that alternate from spring to in the summer trade. Beautiful in autumn, a period in which, on weekdays, you can walk the Pian Grande immersed in silence, without the presence of tourists. A cycling license has been established in Castelluccio: castellucciodeglieroi.it

From the Castelluccio pass you can reach this panoramic point to admire the Castelluccio plain and the eastern side of the Sibillini mountains. From here you can observe the long and impressive fault generated by the earthquake. The colorful flowering of lentils occurs in summer, from July to August. An incredible human and natural spectacle.

Belvedere Hut and Panoramic Platform

Highlight • Viewpoint

Leaving the path you reach the Belvedere refuge and the wooden walkway that leads to a panoramic platform. The view extends from Mount Vettore to the Laga mountains up to the Adriatic coast. From the Colle delle Cese refuge it is an easy excursion suitable for families. In summer the path is sunny but it is worth following it.

Forca di Presta Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Forca di Presta is one of the most famous passes in the Sibillini mountains. There are many trails that start from here. The most difficult ones go uphill towards Mount Vettore, the easiest ones at the foot of the mountain. There is also a wheelchair accessible trail called "Sentiero per Tutti NT2" that from the pass in three kilometers leads to the Belvedere refuge.
