Upon returning from a trip to Assisi, Francis developed the firm intention of becoming a hermit, his only home a cave. His life plan was to pursue a path of spiritual asceticism, consisting of prayer, fasting, and penance. Over time, the area where the Sanctuary of Paola now stands began to attract numerous pilgrims, seeking physical and spiritual healing through his intercession. Francis's ascetic rigor also attracted young men who wanted to live like him, and thus the Order of Minims began to take shape. The reputation for sanctity of Francis and his hermits was spreading like wildfire, so much so that many urban centers requested a convent run by Minims in their cities. Francis, while maintaining his commitment to the eremitic life, traveled from Paola to Paterno in the guise of Founder. He was about 56 years old when, accompanied by Paolo Rendace—who would become a key figure in the Order's history—Francis arrived in the small community of Serre Cosentine. He was at the height of his spiritual maturity and with great determination he dedicated himself personally to the construction of the Church.

The "Tavolaria" bridge about 1500 meters from Cannavina was built in the Spanish period in 1592 with a single arch in sun-baked bricks while the shoulders were built entirely with local stone and lime; the left shoulder rests on a very characteristic rock spur. It connected, via mule tracks, the lands to the left of the river with those exposed to the east, and was important for the trade of agricultural and sheep-farming products which were brought to the markets of Rogliano. But, in addition to its rough and primitive architectural beauty, it fascinates us with its history and the legend linked to this area from which it takes its name: Tavolaria. King Oenotrio, finding himself traveling up the Savuto valley, encountered much resistance from his enemies in the area. To defeat them, he worked with cunning by asking for a truce and inviting them to a lavish dinner and, after getting them drunk, he killed them all. The Cannavina locality takes its name from the Cannavino stream, a tributary of the Savuto river, and is one of the refreshment places of the Rogliano people characterized by a waterfall which at the base forms a basin of water, the so-called "vullu" in the local dialect. Cannavino/a could mean "guzzling wine" precisely because of the coolness and beauty of the place which invites the typical conviviality of the people of the valley.

The Savuto Castle, an Angevin jewel, rises majestically over the village, dominating the Savuto valley. Recently restored, it is a living testimony to the history and different cultures that have inhabited the area. Well looked after, it hosts events and events, and has become a tourist attraction for Cleto, the town of the two castles. A visit to the castle and the surrounding village is a journey through time and Calabrian culture.

Parco Bombarda is located near Monte Mancuso, about 20 km from Lamezia Terme. It is a precious natural oasis in Calabria. The area is dotted with numerous paths perfect for MTB, such as the climb towards Monte Mancuso.

Monte Mancuso, in the heart of Calabria, rises majestically between the Savuto valley and the Sant'Eufemia plain, reaching 1,327 meters above sea level. This mountainous region is a natural oasis with peaks, including Monte Castelluzzo and Monte del Greco, and a dense forest of beech, chestnut and silver fir trees. It is an ideal place for walkers, cyclists and photographers, with numerous hamlets set on picturesque hillsides. A hidden gem, just 20 km from the lively Feaci Kite Surf coast.

Climb from Pietrebianche to Bombarda, the last 2 km really scary, with a slope of 18%. In this tour you find the new road up which is a bit more soft ... 12-13% but more feasible! be careful downhill, it's very steep
