Camping Colorito in Ussita is in the hamlet of Calcara, on a plateau on the slopes of Monte Bove, in the Sibillini National Park in the Sibillini Mountains. It is part of the Colorito complex, a hostel and campsite run by the Salesians of Don Bosco. After the October 2016 earthquake, the hostel's wooden cabins housed many Ussita residents who had lost their homes for a time. Later tremors then forced them to leave the facility, which had been damaged.
