  • This is really something different. After a walk up in the hills you will find a small church located inside a cave.

  • It takes some effort to get to the site: a 700m walk on a steep, stone-paved path. But at the end you reach a unique and impressive site. Our trip up took about 20 minutes with a couple of short...

  • Beautiful and worth the visit! Free parking and free entry. The pathway is cobblestone the whole way up. It’s a steep grade (10-12% I think), but only 700m to the temple. For those with mobility issues the grade and the entryway would be the biggest hurdle. The entry is gated with a turnstile (see pic).
  • This place is just amazing, if you're around to see "Frasassi" then add a couple of hours to spend here. A must see. The location is unique as is the way to reach it. I went on a foggy morning and the temple just appeared from nowhere in the middle of the mountain and no one was around. Where else can you see that? Also a Canova statue (a replica) is sitting there. Yes, there is a slope of 700-800mt to reach the summit, count 20 minutes to go up. The road is paved and not too slippery. if you're not 100% just take your time, it's not too difficult. Of course going downhill is much faster. There is a small parking lot near the roadway and the place doesn't charge any fees. During Christmas time the location gets super crowded, avoid if possible (although the procession is cool to see).
