Monterosso

Highlight • Settlement

The variant of stage IX of the Parco dei Ciclovia leads towards Lake Angitola, a naturalistic oasis declared a "wetland of international value" along which a pleasant cycle path runs. The Variant goes from Passo Fossa del Lupo to Torre di Ruggiero crossing the towns of Polia, Monterosso Calabro (with a magnificent historic center where the Museum of Peasant and Artisan Civilization of Calabria is located) and San Nicola da Crissa, called "the balcony delle Calabrie" for the splendid panorama overlooking the Calabrian coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. For those wishing to take a trip to the sea, the magnificent beaches of Pizzo Calabro are only 5 km away from Lake Angitola.

Monterosso Calabro

Highlight • Settlement

The village of Monterosso Calabro is full of ancient buildings and hidden streets. At night, when the town is illuminated, it is described as a nativity scene set in the mountain. Worth visiting are the two museums: "Museum of Rural and Artisan Civilization of Calabria" and the "Multimedia Museum of the Serre".
