Porche di Vallinfante

Porche di Vallinfante is a mountain peak in the Sibillini Mountains, located in the Marche region of central Italy. The summit sits at a high elevation and provides views across the surrounding mountain landscape and valleys.

The peak served for centuries as a natural boundary dividing different communities and territories across the Marche region. This geographic position made it a significant landmark for local settlement patterns and regional organization.

Local mountaineering groups maintain traditional hiking routes across Porche di Vallinfante, passing down knowledge of paths through generations of climbers.

Multiple marked hiking trails lead to the summit, with starting points near the Province of Macerata where visitor parking is available. The routes vary in difficulty and duration, so consulting local trail maps before heading out is helpful.

From the summit on clear days, visitors can see both the Adriatic coastline and the extensive landscape of the central Apennines stretching across the horizon. This dual vista from a single vantage point is a memorable experience that few mountain climbs in the region offer.
