- View Map
Situated half way between Le Marche’s two regional capitals, Macerata and Ascoli Piceno, in the seemingly endless panorama of the Sibilline Mountains, Il Cerro is to be found on the edge of the Sibilline Mountains National Park. Here, in this the most beautiful and mysterious part of the Apennines, visitors may explore on foot, on the mountain bikes available for hire, or by car. Small huts, used formerly by hunters, have been equipped for picnics and barbecues. Aerial hides have been made for serious bird watching. Interesting and varied tours can be arranged in advance by the day or half day with a friendly, qualified Alpine Guide. The coast is little more than an hour away by car, or you can take in the views while driving over the mountain range, stopping for a swim at Lago Fiastrone. Alternatively, you can visit the towns of Sarnano, famous for its thermal waters, or the walled hilltop town of San Ginesio, which has some fine fourth century artwork.
