31 km from Zinga to San Giovanni in Fiore by way of Cerenzia, where traces of the ancient town still show. Paths through woods and wide views lead you into the Sila. San Giovanni in Fiore, its capital, sits among larches, silver firs and beeches of the Parco Nazionale della Sila, and the snow comes in winter. Here Gioacchino da Fiore, the abbot Dante remembers, built the Abbazia Florense in 1189, with its lobed rose windows playing with light and shadow.
