The itinerary leads to the long ridge of the highest summit of Lucretili Mountains, Mt. Pellecchia (1,369m). Situated in the central-northern section of the mountain system, the mountain has the characteristic features of the Apennines with gentle morphology and no particular features on the western slope, very different from the steep south-eastern slopes. Easy itinerary along which you will enjoy a good part of the Apennines of Lazio and Abruzzi. However, it is interested by snowfalls, since it develops on the highest summit and is partly less influenced by the climatic mitigation of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
