Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Mount Velino is the third highest peak in the Appennini, so if you have the chance, you should climb it to its top.
There are many ways to reach the top, from the hardest climbing path to the easy walks, you just have to choose and start walking.
The climbing on the easiest paths takes about 5 hours to be on top and 4 to go back to your cars, but the experience worths the time! The paths will take you among rock and woods, and also to some mountain springs were you'll be able to drink some very fresh water. There is also a shelter at midway where you can have some rest and eat the food you brought.
The climbing to the top will give you the chance to embrace with your sight almost all the Abruzzi region, and if the day is particularly clear, you could also see the Adriatic Sea on your left and St. Peter's Church in Rome on your right!

Planning on passing through Monte Velino at the end of Oct. What's the weather like for hiking, especially at the Summit? Would fleece sweater and hardshell jacket be enough? Thanks
