    The first FeF Viaggi excursion will be on Mount Ascension on the occasion of the Feast of Our Lady of the Ascension

    In the past, many faithful left their villages on foot and reached the top of the mountain on pilgrimage. And after the religious celebrations, the celebration began among baskets full of food and barrel organs that marked the rhythm of the leap. Today the celebration has changed but we still want to savor that taste of conviviality and the desire to share!

    The itinerary

    We will meet in Ascoli Piceno and leave together towards the starting point: Polesio. Going up a stretch of asphalt road we will follow the ancient mule track to the summit! A magnificent view will open up before us: gullies, Ascoli Piceno and the Montagna dei Fiori, up to the Maiella if the sky is clear. Trallallero will be waiting for us, a folkloristic group that will make us stretch the jump to the rhythm. Packed lunch but, if you want, we can take care of it. Going back to the cars, anyone who wants can follow the afternoon celebrations in Polesio.

    The meeting is at 9.30 am in the square of the Cino e Lillo del Duca Stadium

    At 10:00 we will leave from the Church of San Giacomo Apostolo in Polesio along the ancient mule track that leads to the mountain

    We will arrive at the summit around 12pm. The Trallallero, a folk group, will be waiting for us up there, who will make us listen to the rhythmic sound of the Piceno passatelli.

    At around 3.00 pm we will set off towards the return road and, whoever wants, will be able to participate in the religious celebrations in the town of Polesio.
