Montefortino, in the Sibilla's amphitheatre

Via Papiri

Montefortino is one of the most interesting little towm of the National Park of the Sibillini mountains. The amphitheatre of these mountains is spectacular; their peaks reach an altitude of 2000 metres like Mount Priora or "Pizzo Berro".
But the most fascinating presence is the one of Mount Sibilla, named like the prophetess who predicted the birth of Christ.
