Section of trail 750 starting from Torre Paola and climbing to the Picco di Circe. The route follows the western part of the promontory’s ridge, through Mediterranean scrub, with exposed stretches. Trail 750 is graded by the Park for expert hikers (EE).
The ridge route is not recommended for those who suffer from vertigo. Along the way there are viewpoints over the dune barrier and the Sabaudia lakes, the Picco di Circe, the Gulf of Gaeta and the Pontine Islands. The trail crosses one of the most continuous forest systems in the Park, then enters the Quarto Caldo through Mediterranean scrub, passing above the peregrine falcon’s nesting cliff. Before setting off for the Picco, carefully consider your physical condition, the weather and the walking time.
