The route begins at the Abbey of San Michele Arcangelo, a medieval gem in the Parco del Vulture, among history and monastic traditions, visiting the church and the cave. It continues along woodland trails to the Small Lake of Monticchio, surrounded by beech and holm oak trees, a peaceful place ideal for relaxing and taking photos in nature. The walk goes on along scenic paths, including the Pista dei Briganti, leading to the Belvedere del Vulture, which offers spectacular views over the lakes and volcanic hills.
