San Savino – Panicale: The stage, which goes on mainly in the woods, still offers beautiful panoramic views and allows a dip in medieval atmospheres, thanks to the castles of San Savino, Montali, Mongiovino and to the arrival in Panicale – one of “I Borghi più belli d’Italia” (the most beautiful villages in Italy) – where, among other things, an important fresco by Perugino is preserved.

Città della Pieve – Villastrada: the path is immersed in a wood that leads to the village of San Donato. Crossed the road, the path continues through dirt roads and leads up to Cantagallina.
