We were back in the Monti Sibillini today visiting the tiny village of Castelluccio. Castellucio is an undistinguished village but notable both for being the highest inhabited village in the Apennines and for being on the edge of Piano Grande a high plain covered in wild flowers in May and June. It is a very beautiful spot.
