Via Sacra

This ancient paved street, very well preserved, that once was crossed from Roman generals to celebrate their victories, leads to the peak of Monte Cavo, where there was the temple consecrated to Jupiter Latiaris.

Its path along the slopes of Monte Cavo offers the possibility to see the local vegetation, characterized by woods of chestnut trees.
