Castrovillari

Highlight • Settlement

Castrovillari is located in the heart of the Pollino National Park, between the valleys of the rivers Sibari and Lagano and along the cycle path of the parks of Calabria. Its name derives from the Latin Castrum Villarum, "fortress of the villas", dating back to the era of Roman colonization. Of particular interest is the Aragonese Castle, built on the hill of the ancient village.

View of Saracena

Highlight • Viewpoint

The small village of Saracena can be admired from various points, both from the plain and from the mountains, as it is located on the top of a hill. Saracena is already fascinating in itself, but being able to see it on the horizon is even more extraordinary.
