Monte Bove

Monte Bove is a mountain in the Monti Sibillini range that rises above 2100 meters in elevation. Its northern face features steep rock walls made of dolomitic limestone that give the summit its distinctive appearance.

The summit has shaped settlement patterns across the Marche region for centuries, serving as a natural landmark and boundary marker. Local communities relied on its resources to sustain their way of life.

The mountain serves as a natural focal point for communities across the region and has shaped how people live and work in the surrounding valleys. Traditional shepherd routes and seasonal grazing practices remain visible on its slopes.

Several marked trails provide access to the summit from different directions, with the main route starting from the mountain station at Frontignano. The area is best visited during warmer months when paths are dry and easy to navigate.

Hidden beneath the limestone surface are several underground caves carved by water erosion over millions of years. These formations reveal how geological processes have shaped the mountain's interior.
