Rocca di Papa. The Sacred Way

Rocca di Papa. The Sacred Way

The sacred way is the ancient Roman road that was used by Roman generals to celebrate their victories.

The path leads to the top of the mountain cable where once stood the temple of Jupiter Latiaris (one of the names for Jupiter in the Latin league).

It winds around Mount Cavo in Rocca di Papa offering the possibility to follow the path through the chestnut trees and has been preserved in excellent condition.
