Monte San Vicino, straddling the provinces of Macerata and Ancona, offers the spectacle of the Canfaito beech forest. In autumn it is a fantastic excursion where you can cycle in a truly fascinating environment, like few others in Italy! But also during the spring and summer seasons it offers numerous ideas for beautiful excursions! Like, for example, a visit to the village of Elcito, a suggestive medieval castle also known as the "little Tibet" of the Marches. The excursion is highly rewarding for the panoramas that it crosses, which range from dense beech woods to wild meadows, with a view that ranges from the Adriatic Sea to the Sibillini Mountains.
