ITINERARIO

PROGRAMMA

We arrive in Greccio during the day to visit the town and its surroundings. Dinner at the hotel and overnight stay in double rooms.

The path starts with a long and demanding section. Nevertheless, this difficulty is rewarded by the stunning view near the sanctuary of Fonte Colombo and the lovely trails that circle around the Sacred Valley. It is best to set out early in order to have time to discover the monuments of Rieti. 23.8 km.

The walk goes to two important sanctuaries in the Franciscan valley: La Foresta and Poggio Bustone. Anyone who is searching for peace and quiet – and, like St Francis, wants to escape from the “pomp of the world” – will find these secluded convents surrounded by greenery to be ideal. The path goes up and down, but it is important to save enough energy for the final kilometres uphill to Poggio Bustone. 18.4 km.

We leave Rieti’s Sacred Valley to enter into Umbria. The pilgrims are welcomed by Lake Piediluco, which was immortalized time and again by the artists on the Grand Tour. The difficulty of this leg is the ascent – steep at times – to the Beech of St Francis, but it is rewarded by the majesty of this ancient tree, and we can stop to rest under its branches. The rest of the walk is on delightful trails and mule tracks. 22 km.

The last day is devoted to the marvellous Marmore Waterfall, with a series of trails and routes in lush natural surroundings. Approximately 10 km.
