Tips from the Community
Piobbico is a beautiful town in the province of Pesaro Urbino with about 1800 inhabitants. It is located in a valley between Monte Nerone and Monte Montiego and stands right at the confluence of two rivers: the Biscubio and the Candigliano. Piobbico is also known as the Land of the Ugly, due to the National Association of the Ugly, founded at the end of the 19th century to allow young women from Piobbico to find a husband; it currently has about 30,000 members and every year, on the first Sunday of September, the World Festival of the Ugly takes place. The festival is famous throughout central Italy and attracts a very large number of people each year.

Spectacular crossing point located in a gorge near the Frasassi caves. I recommend avoiding looking around too much while you are on the road and not even stopping on the edge, but taking advantage of the recesses in the road to take some photos

This town with its suggestive historical center hosts the Frasassi Climbing Festival every year. A festival focused on sport climbing but not only... Also MTB, bouldering, slack-line, yoga and hiking. The event takes place on the last weekend of August, a moment of international meeting between lovers of this sport. Surely an initiative that wants to successfully promote (naturalistic) tourism in this area. For the whole weekend there is a streetboulder competition, so you climb in the alleys, on the walls of the houses, the tower or the surrounding wall. Truly spectacular, even for those who do not participate. However, it is also worth visiting all year round to browse through its alleys or to take a trip to Monte Murano.
