Walk south from Assisi and follow Franciscan footsteps through Spello, Trevi, and Spoleto, then across the dramatic Valnerina and up to the lakeside village of Piediluco. Quiet paths lead toward the forests above Poggio Bustone, where Francis found comfort in moments of doubt. Your journey finishes in Rieti, the green heart of the Franciscan landscape. This stretch combines art, Roman history, and deeply peaceful countryside, offering a rewarding pilgrimage through the mountains and valleys of Umbria and Lazio.
