  • As it is a very tiny hamlet, bring your own water and snacks if you plan to walk around for a while.
  • The place is best visited as a quick, scenic stop while you are exploring the wider Acquaviva area.
  • The access roads are very winding and narrow, so drive cautiously, especially around blind corners.
  • Respect the privacy of the locals, as this is a quiet residential area rather than a bustling tourist hub.
