About this place

The stretch of the Appian Way between Itri and Fondi preserves the landscape of a road that has connected people and territories for centuries. Cobblestones, retaining walls and Mediterranean vegetation accompany you as you explore the route, along which you will also come across the Fortino di Sant’Andrea.

This is an ideal option for those who prefer to learn about history whilst walking. The point on the map refers to the area around the fort: before setting off, you should choose the section that is actually accessible, check the access points and the condition of the path, and bring water and suitable footwear.
