This itinerary is designed for the faithful to discover religious places hidden among nature and mountains.
In the secret heart of Molise, there where the mountains embrace the sky and nature speaks in a whisper, a spiritual itinerary unfolds that is an invitation to recollection, wonder and self-discovery. It starts in Bojano, where the hermitage of Sant’Egidio has long protected the village below, amidst limpid springs and paths that ascend to the soul. Here faith is breathed in the fresh, pure air, among the silences of the mountains.
Continue on to Castelpetroso, where the Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows suddenly appears, like a cathedral of stone and light set in greenery. Its spires soar between woods and rocks, and the path leading to the Grotto of Apparitions is an inner pilgrimage, step by step, toward peace.
In Frosolone, amid wild mountains and scenic trails, the hermitage of Sant’Egidio with its colorful, fragrant garden is the custodian of an ancient, discreet faith that blends with the landscape. Sant’Angelo del Pesco, in upper Molise, conceals the hermitage of San Luca, which, amidst rock and nature, offers silences of other times and views that open the heart.
And finally San Pietro Avellana, where the hermitage of Sant’Amico hides in the woods: here time stands still, and the sacred blends with the breath of nature. A journey for those seeking the essential, in the heart of the mountains.
