THE MEDIEVAL ROUTE
Certain areas of this itinerary boast singular constructions of medieval origin: some examples are the castles which populate the surrounding area of Arcevia. This itinerary illustrates the distinctiveness and elegance of the Museums, Churches, Abbeys and other antique monuments present in the towns of Arcevia and Serra San Quirico. Following the route further, the visitor will encounter the suggestive Grotte di Frasassi (Frasassi caves) near Genga; the caves constitute complex karsts which instigate an emotional subterranean journey through a network of narrow passages, among stalactites and stalagmites. Nearby and not to be missed are also the thermal springs of Terme di S. Vittore, famous for the therapeutic benefits of their sulphuric waters. See teh video below:

Welcome to Le Marche. A stunning, soulful and undiscovered region that will take you back in time and make you instantly fall in love with the so called “stile di vita Italiano”
Numana is in the heart of the Cònero Mountain Park. The inhabits divides it into two sections: Numana Alta (upper) the oldest part of the town lies on the hill, and Numana Bassa (lower), the more recent part of it, which includes the port and the cost until the ward of Marcelli.
The recipes that are illustrated, are only a small savouring of an ancient way of life, social and rural, that by necessity has been transformed, firstly, into habit and today into tradition.
The great limestone massif that stands in the southern Marche includes one of the highest peaks on the Italian mainland - Monte Vettore at 2,476 mts - and the wild tarns and windswept high plains of the Monti Sibillini provide some of the Marche' s most spectacular landscapes.
There' s always time for a mouth - watering stop to taste at one' s leisure the famous fish soup or chowder, the stockfish with potatoes, meats cooked in porchetta or grilled, the Fabriano salami, the tripe alla canapina, the vincisgrassi pasta, rabbit with potacchio, all served by a nice glass of Docwine, like Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi, Lacrima di Morro d' Alba, RossoConero and many others more.
Religious architecture represents an inestimable wealth of the whole provincial territory
