The Piceno extends on the southernest area of Marche. Ridges brach off from the Sibillini Monutains, sloping down towards the Adriatic Sea and shaping, near the shore-line, beautiful "terraces on the sea", where from the Middle Ages, defence necessities and air healthiness fostered the birth of urban centres, which were unique for the historical and artistic patrimony, surrounded by the colour and the scents of citrus plantations and strips of Mediterranean maquis. Between mountains and seas there are narrow valleys, with rivers and torrents going down southwards. The sightseeing of the Piceno following ridges and valleys is the best thing for people wishing to enjoy, in the most appropriate context, art and faith places, landscapes and traditions, productive typicities and gastronomic specialities. It will be also the opportunity for discovering unusal paths and ways, full of interest and re-evocative suggestions.
