In addition to its spectacular natural scenery, Abruzzo is filled with medieval castles and villages, Roman ruins, and many other places of interest for people who appreciate culture and history. For example, about 20 km from the mountain property, there is the fortress of Rocca Calascio, which dates back all the way to the tenth century. At an elevation of 1,460 meters, it is the highest fortress in the Apennines. Because of this, it can be easily seen from Monte Picca.
