Went for a walk today, about 14 miles. Started early and followed a different and verdant path up Monte Subasio.
Occasionally, one sees these signs when hiking. The top one prohibits hunting. The bottom one has to do with gathering tartufi (truffles), an Umbrian delicacy.
Once above the treeline, there's a nice view of Santa Maria degli Angeli.
Wildflowers near the summit.
This is the summit marker for Monte Subasio. The four panels surrounding it show profiles and names of the surrounding mountains.
Here's another picture of me standing there, this time on one foot.
Some trails are narrow paths, others old roads.
Came across this old fountain, which appears to still be in use as a water source.
Beautiful wildflowers along the path.
Passed the Abbazia (Abbey) di San Benedetto al Monte Subasio (circa 1051 AD).
More wildflowers.
An old stone wall.
Ciao.
