Italy mountains

"I went up from Verdeggia through Monte Saccarello , Punta di Santa Maria and Cima Valletta della Punta , in a wonderful fresh and clear morning . Fantastic views from the summit ." — daniele64 • Sep 26, 2020

"Approached this from the south, on the road to the youth hostel leaving from around 590 m at a small parking place just after a hairpin beyond the house beneath the hill. Climbed quite steeply to get on the saddle of the hill, skirting around the side of the hill some what. There is no sense going beyond the height of the saddle. Once on the saddle, crossing som quite large slabs of rock, different to the loose and corroded ones up to that point, began making way into the wood before the summit climb. Here it is immediately quite mossy and earthy and there are a couple of rocky mounds to go over. There is a depression to the north. From here, pretty much straight up the steep hill through thick but penetrable forest. Some one has put to red lines on the trees, and these go most of the way to the top in a line due east. They peter out at some point, and we actually missed picking them up again on the way down. There is a little clearing on the top, with good views to certain mountains. The descent much the same way. About 1 hr 15 mins to climb there and much the same on return. " — vygodski • Sep 26, 2020

"Much of the way up this hill can be done in the car from the north. To get to the top you continue along the track and go through some bushes where you see the ruins of the monastery of Sant'Angelo. I can't find any info about this place. There are about three or four walls still standing, one circular in form. The stones used are quite small, often fist sized, which I thought unusual." — vygodski • Sep 25, 2020

"I went out to look for mushrooms, but since there weren't any, I decided to go up to the highest mountains nearby ... Monte Grande , Monte Carpasina and Monte Fenaira in a grey morning ...but always a good walk ." — daniele64 • Sep 19, 2020
