About 5.5 hours Vertical descent: +600/-850m Distance: 13 km We leave passing through the forest that surrounds the Franciscan Sanctuary of La Verna: this sacred place is important for Christians because it is thought that here in 1224 St. Francis received the stigmata. Beyond the religious motivations that make this place interesting, what is evident is its suggestiveness. After a quick visit to the Sanctuary we will continue along the Sacred Valley accompanied by a change of views and ecosystems until we reach the refuge Casa Santicchio for dinner and overnight stay.
