Monte Focalone, Mountain summit in Caramanico Terme, Italy.
Monte Focalone rises to 2676 meters within the Maiella massif, featuring steep slopes and rocky terrain that characterize the Apennine mountain range.
The mountain paths contain evidence of ancient settlements, reflecting centuries of human presence in this section of the Apennine mountains.
The mountain trails intersect with traditional shepherd routes that local inhabitants have used for generations to move livestock through the Maiella region.
Climbers reach Monte Focalone through the Paolo Barrasso Refuge, following marked paths that require navigation equipment due to visibility changes at higher elevations.
The north-western face of Monte Focalone overlooks the Orfento Valley, where wolves, bears, eagles, and chamois inhabit the protected natural reserve.
