The Marche / Abruzzo / Marche region
Marche is an amazing combination of beautiful rolling countryside, mountain ranges, ancient hilltop villages, stunning coastline and beautiful cities. Marche offers the traveller a wealth of culture, art, crafts, excellent local cuisine and beautiful scenery and being fairly undiscovered you will rarely be faced with the crowds now associated with the tourist sites of Tuscany.
The list of villages, towns and cities worth visiting is endless where you can visit the numerous historic attractions or simply roam the narrow streets and beautiful piazzas. For the traveller who simply enjoys soaking up the local atmosphere Marche is certainly the place. For those wishing to take part in more energetic activities the region offers skiing, walking, horse riding, under-water fishing, angling, yachting, recreational sailing, hot air ballooning, twin engine go-carting and quad biking.
Mogliano area
Mogliano has a population of nearly 5000. Elevated, it is surrounded by high walls, including the ancient bulwarks of the original fortress. The church of Santa Maria Assunta contains an important work by Lorenzo Lotto, the Our Lady of the Assumption with Saints dated 1548. There are 3 restaurants and a good selection of bars.
Within a 10 minute drive is The Abbey of Chiaravalle di Fiastra founded by the Cistercian monks of Clairvaux in 1142. The property lies within the Abbadia di Fiastra nature reserve where you can enjoy walking throughout the 1800 hectares. Minutes away from the Abbey is the archaeological area of Urbs Salvia with the well preserved amphitheater dating back to the 2nd century.
Marche's coastline offers some stunning scenery and in particular Monte Conero with its high cliffs (offering 18 walks) and small beaches tucked away in corners of natural beauty. Even closer for our guests is Porto San Giorgo, a pretty medieval fishing town with sandy beaches, established restaurants and a lovely marina. During July the locals hold the traditional Festa del Pesce (Fish Festival), where the fish is cooked in huge frying pans.
The Monti Sibillini National Park is a nature reserve covering an area of 60,000 hectares spread over the Sibillini mountain range. Wolves, bears and wild cats still roam this area of natural beauty which offers breath-taking walking holidays for all enthusiasts. Mountain lakes, waterfalls, deep gorges, woodlands and ancient monasteries are just some of the delights of this area. Organised walks and mule treks are available. However, there is a map available detailing all the walks in the area for those wishing to enjoy the delights of the Sibillini at their own pace.
The well-known Grotte di Frasassi (Frasassi caves) are one of the most complex karst systems in Italy. The caves offer an underground world of lakes, beautiful transparent alabaster formations, vaulted caverns and stalactites suspended like daggers. Guided tours are available throughout the year.
