Often described as the Marche region’s “Little Switzerland” for its healthy air and mild climate, Frontone stands at an altitude of 450 metres and has 1360 inhabitants.

It is situated at the source of the Cinisco torrent, in the far corner of the Province of Pesaro and Urbino, and includes within its boundaries most of that “humpback ridge called Catria” (Dante, Paradise, Canto XXI).

The climate reflects the particular geographical qualities of the area: the cool valleys, the green hills and the peaks of Monte Catria (1702m.) and Monte Acuto (1668m.), both of which are crossed by accessible footpaths for walks and trekking.
