Accumoli Trail 300B: Fonte del Campo – Macera della Morte (junction with 301)

The route of trail 300B

There are three main waypoints: Illica, the Inversaturo, the Macera della Morte.

At Fonte del Campo there are a parking lot next to the start, the church of San Bartolomeo and some water points. The first section leads to Illica, at 850 m, where there are another parking lot and the church of San Paolo Apostolo. It is the last village: from here on the climb is continuous.

Just above Illica there is a viewpoint. The trail passes below Monte Pian Zaeta (1,331 m) and, at around 1,400 m, meets a drinking water point along the route. Higher up it touches Monte l'Inversaturo (1,721 m) and passes the Rifugio Inversaturo, at 1,780 m.

The last part runs along the ridge. It climbs toward Monte Le Vene (2,020 m), loses a few dozen meters and climbs again to the junction with trail 301, at 2,020 m, just below the summit of the Macera della Morte (2,073 m).

Trail 300B technical details
