Largo Angelo Prisco Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The clearing commemorates the homonymous financier murdered by poachers in 1995. From this small clearing created between gorse and conifers, the plaque dedicated to the memory of Priscus marks the point of separation between the two paths 1 and 2.
