Serra San Quirico & le Copertelle

Marche

Serra San Quirico climbs a narrow spur guarding the Esino gorge; its distinctive feature is the "Copertelle", vaulted covered passageways that doubled the town's defensive walls and now shelter atmospheric stepped lanes. The ramparts look into the Gola della Rossa e Frasassi park.
