CAVES OF FRASASSI

The Frasassi Caves are underground karst caves located within the Gola della Rossa and Frasassi Natural Park. The natural site attracts many visitors every year. The excursion is suitable for both children and adults. The biggest attraction is the so-called 'Abisso Ancona' cave, one of the deepest underground cavities in Europe and possibly the world.

LORETO

The Holy House of Loreto, which John Paul II described as the true Marian heart of Christianity, is one of the main attractions in the Marche region.
The Marches, which has always been a land of saints, blessed and popes, has left its mark on the history and culture of Christianity, allowing centres of spirituality to flourish throughout its valleys and in the heart of the Apennines, in close proximity to nature and religion.
The Holy Nazarene House, where the Virgin Mary was born, lived and received the Annunciation, is one of the most important relics of Christianity, and the Basilica that houses it was created as a fortress to protect it, in fact, it represents a unique example of a fortified church.

CONERO REGIONAL PARK

The scenery that can be admired from the top of the park is certainly a spectacle of rare beauty, offering stunning views and natural landscapes with wonderful colours. Paths to be covered on foot or by bicycle directly overlooking the sea. A unique and beautiful experience for adults and children. Sports enthusiasts will be thrilled to learn about and try out the many sporting activities that our area offers: mountain biking, trekking, horse riding, sailing, water skiing, windsurfing and kitesurfing.

PORTONOVO BAY AND BEACH OF THE TWO SISTERS

From Camping Riviera Village, it is possible to quickly reach the Bay of Portonovo and the Due Sorelle beach. The first is famous for the particularity of its beach, made up of very fine sand and smooth white pebbles. The second is a beach that has become famous due to the presence of two massive rocks jutting out of the sea that are very similar and therefore nicknamed the two "Sisters". This heavenly bay can only be reached by sea.

More of the legend

Many people know that, seen from the sea, the Due Sorelle rocks below the Conero look like two sisters with their hands joined in prayer facing the coast. These rocks were once connected to the land and then the force of the sea isolated them.
Very few, however, know that all the rocks on the coast, from Numana to Portonovo, had a name.
They were used by fishermen to determine which rocks to fish around, an indispensable reference for certain types of fishing practised until the middle of the last century.

With the names "Ada" and "Nunziata", my uncle, an old fisherman from Numana at the same time as my grandfather, used to call the rocks "Due Sorelle" to direct the crew in their fishing. Even if there is no ancient written legend of the Due Sorelle, there are the tales of the old fishermen like the ones my father used to tell tourists on a trip on his fishing boat to the Conero. Magical stories with blurred contours between history and legend, in close connection with the territory, a fantastic invitation full of mystery to discover such places to which they were deeply connected.

These tales tell of two beautiful young sisters who bravely braved the storm and went in search of a fisherman lost at sea during a fishing trip. Both of them were madly in love with the man, but as fate would have it, they never returned.
When the storm subsided, a dazzlingly beautiful new white beach had appeared beneath the mountain, where the man was miraculously found safe. The rocks created a natural protection from the storm and looked like two praying women facing the white beach.
From now on, the beach and the rocks of the Two Sisters have been a symbol of beauty and love.

The Due Sorelle beach can be reached by sea along the shoreline, or on foot through the Passo del Lupo (only appropriate for equipped hikers). The sea is enchanting all year round, but in the summer, all the colours shine through, from light green to emerald to deep cobalt. The beach is very white, the seabed rich in shellfish, and has nothing to envy in comparison with exotic and famous beaches in the middle of the ocean. The Libri, limestone rocks similar to the pages of a book to be read, identify the tip of the Conero near the Due Sorelle rocks.

The Slave Cave, which collapsed at the beginning of the last century, opened directly onto the sea not far from the Due Sorelle towards Portonovo. Inside, the beautiful, deep natural cave had a second entrance with a small beach where sailors found refuge during storms. Today it survives in the memory and legends of pirates. It seems that Saracen pirates kept treasures and slaves there while awaiting ransom. The Mirrors (Plates of the Seagulls), high and steep walls overhanging the sea that are as smooth and sparkling as mirrors.
