Guarcino

Guarcino combines a close-knit medieval core with the broad uplands of the Monti Ernici, a contrast that reflects its position between Ciociaria and the central Apennines. At roughly 625 metres above sea level, the town stands above the Cosa valley, while the Campocatino basin lies higher in the same mountain area and is known for winter sports. Monte Viglio, at 2,156 metres the highest summit of the Ernici range, shapes the regional horizon. Steep lanes and stone-built houses preserve the scale of a hill community. Local amaretti, almond biscuits, are among Guarcino’s traditional specialities. See how Guarcino fits into the Ernici mountains and the wider Lazio area by browsing webcams nearby.
