The area of Velletri and the region extending to Terracina on the coast were in ancient times the land first of the Etruscans, then later the Volsci. By 365 B.C. Velletri had been conquered by the Romans and made a colony. The family of Rome’s Emperor Caesar August was born in this city, and he spent his youth there. Much of the city was leveled by the fighting in early 1944. The path for the next days, from here to Priverno, will roughly follow the Volsci road (Via Setina) that predates the Via Appia by at least 200 years.
Today's tracks follow pleasant roads into the country east of Velletri.
The B and B Le Piazze di Fabio is conveniently located on the Veletri side of town.
Cori’s history goes back before the 6th century B.C., becoming a Roman colony in the 5th Century. It is best known for its Temple of Hercules and the Chiesa dell’Annunziata, with its spectacular frescos.
