Tips from the Community
Interesting to read how the "ancestors" could preserve the snow. The "NEVIERA" is a depression that was worked until to have a shaped like an upside-down bell. Then the snow was thrown into, pressed, and then isolated with leave and dried grass. Then they repeated the operation until to reach the top. The snow was then transported by mule or carts.

All the Fajarama woods is magic: for the hikers and for the mountainbikers. For the hiker: you can easily do it down or uphill: just enjoy and feel the sensations the tha woods gives you. You can easily see some wild animals. With a MTB is better to go downhill: super fun (but you lose the surrounding nature if you go too fast)

Perhaps before this summit cross, which crowns the summit of Monte Celano, the following thoughts of Pope Francis – who passed away on Easter Monday 2025 – may be helpful to one or the other who lingers at the summit after the ascent: + "In the resurrection of Christ, each of our destinies finds its place in the infinite horizon of eternity. Only from his death and resurrection does the certainty arise that nothing can separate us from the love of God [as the Apostle Paul writes in his letter to the Romans, chapter 8]. From this great hope comes every other glimmer of light with which we can overcome the trials and obstacles of life. And not only that: the Risen One also walks with us and becomes our traveling companion, as with the disciples at Emmaus."

Ancient Benedictine abbey inhabited later and still today home to the Capuchin Friars Minor. You can visit the church with altar and wooden statue of St. Matthew the Apostle where you can admire the wonderful wooden "Choir". Also noteworthy is the Franciscan "BiblioLab".

This is an ancient way of "conserving snow" inside a specially prepared depression in the ground which allowed the pressed snow to remain for a longer period of time to be used for refrigeration purposes elsewhere.
