Is Castelluccio La Fiorita (Piano Grande wildflower mosaic) happening right now?

As of Jun 19, 2026, 8:54 PM, in season, building toward peak (~June 20). Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.

Each late spring and early summer the Piano Grande above Castelluccio di Norcia fills with cultivated lentil blooms and wildflowers, creating a large, mapped mosaic of color across the plateau.

The display depends on winter snowmelt and spring rainfall, producing a brief seasonal window for photos and field walks.
