Big Bench No. 408 in Roccasecca: view over the Liri Valley
The giant benches of Chris Bangle's Big Bench Community Project (BBCP) are oversized structures built by local artisans at scenic viewpoints, paired with a collectible official “passport”. There are currently fourteen of them across the Lazio region. The installation in Roccasecca is an ideal destination for hiking enthusiasts: it is located directly along a historic walking trail, and the panorama it offers is worth every step.
Location and panoramic views
Big Bench No. 408 is located in Roccasecca, in the province of Frosinone, positioned on Mount Camarda. It is a natural stopover for those journeying along the walking routes of the Ciociaria region. From this vantage point, the view takes in the entire Liri Valley, the Castle of St Thomas (Castello di San Tommaso), and Colle San Magno, extending all the way to the surrounding peaks of the Ciociaria region. The site is surrounded by dense forests and pristine nature.
The official passport stamp for this BBCP location can be collected at a designated spot near the bench.
