Montecasale is a monastery that is about 15 km hike round trip or a little over 9 miles (up a mountain I might add). The day had perfect weather, not too hot, and sun. One student came with us along with two professors, one professor's baby, and her husband. We were a merry band of travelers. The only downside was I had a few days of soreness (pretty sure I worked some strange muscles!). I hope to make the trek again before I leave!
