Volo dell'Angelo, Pietrapertosa–Castelmezzano
Basilicata
Pietrapertosa and Castelmezzano are two villages built directly into the rock spires of the Dolomiti Lucane — the most extraordinary village setting in Basilicata. The Volo dell'Angelo (Flight of the Angel) zip-line connects the two villages at 120 km/h above the canyon. The hiking trail between the two through the spires (Sentiero delle Sette Pietre) is one of the finest in southern Italy.
