Simple excursion, even for beginners... 80% shaded path

Church of the Madonna delle Grazie located in Castelfranco, in the municipality of Pietralunga (Pg) near the border with the Province of Pesaro, between Umbria and Marche. The church stands a short distance from the Castelfranco Pass, at an altitude of 769 meters above sea level, along the road that was once used to cross the Apennines and pass from the Adriatic side (Bosso river basin) to the Tyrrhenian side that leads to the Tiber plain and vice versa. In front of the church on the pavement there is a stone (see photo) that indicates the points of flow of rainwater; on one side towards streams and rivers that in their path carry water to the Tyrrhenian Sea and on the other towards the Adriatic

Tough climb on a dirt road, but worth it!

The Furlo Pass (also known as Gola del Furlo) is a gorge located in the Marche region of central Italy. This spectacular gorge is located along the ancient Via Flaminia, near the Candigliano river, a tributary of the Metauro. The Furlo gorge was formed between the Pietralata (889 m) and Paganuccio (976 m) mountains by the erosion of the Candigliano river. It has been included in a State Nature Reserve since 2001 and is often promoted to tourists in the region as the "Grand Canyon of Italy". The Roman emperor Vespasian had a tunnel built here to facilitate passage on the Via Flaminia at the narrowest point of the gorge. Next to it is a similar, but smaller tunnel dating back to Etruscan times. The Roman tunnel has a length of 38.30 meters and a height of 5.95 meters.

The descent ends on a dirt road and you take the slightly uphill asphalt road, leaving the Fonte Avellana monastery on the right up to the collar from which you take the nosedive towards Frontone.

Scheggia is a border town, and has always been, since the times of the Ancient Romans. Its charm lies in the testimonies of that era that can still be visited: the Abbey of Santa Maria di Sitria and the Hermitage of San Girolamo. Nearby is also the suggestive Scheggia pass: an Apennine passage located at 632 meters above sea level.

Pass at more than a thousand meters on a dirt road just below Monte Aguzzo. From here you can climb to the top at 1110 meters and enjoy a beautiful view of the surrounding landscape.

Panoramic and suggestive tour!
