località Coppolillo, snc, San Marco Argentano

The area sits on inland hills of the Crati valley, with cultivated slopes, olive groves and scattered woods. The Esaro valley is nearby, and the Pollino massif rises farther to the north within the wider provincial landscape, but not inside the immediate 15 km setting. San Marco Argentano itself is a small historic hill town with a Norman tower and an old centre. The nearest larger town is Cosenza, which has full services, rail connections and the main urban functions for this part of Calabria. This part of northern Calabria is known for hill agriculture, olive oil and small historic centres rather than for a single standout natural feature close by.
