Description

Monte Terminillo (2,217 m) is a limestone massif in the Monti Reatini of Lazio, central Italy. Known as Rome’s mountain, it combines a ski resort with a more rugged northern flank. Rifugio Angelo Sebastiani is the starting point for the normal ascent on trail 401. A more demanding option continues along Cresta Sassetelli on trail 403. The short summit ascent and the ridge circuit have different timings and difficulty grades; winter mountaineering is a separate undertaking.

CAI Gubbio’s circuit climbs trail 401 from Rifugio Sebastiani to the summit, follows trail 403 along Cresta Sassetelli and returns via Sella di Leonessa. It includes exposed rocks, less obvious descent markings and a gravel climb before the saddle. Figures refer to the 21 June 2025 outing plan.
