Hiking
Santa Franca during a walk towards the high mountain (which later took her name) quenched her thirst at a source located under "La Riva dei Segni".
Tradition has it that he built a small cross with oak twigs and placed it at the source.
Even today, the traveler who finds himself passing along this ancient path does not fail to place a cross even if, until today, he probably did not know the reason.
