Monte Porche, Mountain summit in Province of Macerata, Italy
Monte Porche reaches an elevation of 2,233 meters, featuring steep rocky slopes on its southwest side and broad meadowed areas within the Sibillini Mountains range.
The mountain contains multiple World War I fortifications that were constructed along its ridges to serve as defensive positions during military operations.
A chapel dedicated to Saint John the Baptist stands on the mountain slopes, representing the religious heritage of the Marche region's mountain communities.
Visitors can access the summit through two primary marked trails: route 154 from Foce and route 261 from the Castelluccio plain direction.
The mountain serves as the source point of the Aso River, which defines the provincial boundaries between Ascoli Piceno and Fermo as it flows eastward.
