The Marche: the Conero, Frasassi and the Sibillini
Nine days in the quiet region between the Apennines and the Adriatic, where every hill wears a walled town. From Ancona and the white cliffs of the Conero the road turns inland past the Holy House of Loreto and Leopardi’s hill at Recanati, through the Verdicchio vineyards to the caves and gorge of Frasassi, then south by a Cistercian abbey and a turquoise mountain lake into the Sibillini, a range of legends and high pastures. It ends among the travertine squares of Ascoli Piceno and Fermo and the hill villages above the sea. Fast chargers wait in Ancona, Jesi, Macerata, Ascoli and on the coast; in the mountains plan on hotel sockets.
