Tips
This chapel is a perfect spot to take a break and enjoy the view. It consists of two rooms, a small church and a refuge area, managed by the local mountain community. Both are always open and offer excellent shelter on rainy autumn and winter days.

The Chapel of S. Francesco was one of the places where the Poverello of Assisi took refuge to meditate. In this small space of tranquility he could remain immersed in nature.
