Montebuono. Festival of St. Benedict

Every year in June to venerate the memory of the great Saint Benedict, in Montebuono people go on foot on the mountain dedicated to him.

On the summit he attended mass in the small sanctuary.

The road in that month is scented by gorse bushes that line the trail. The peak offers an incredible view over the Sabina.
