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 highest of the Coast Range Mountains. Save some legs for the last snatch!

Mendicino is a historic village at an altitude of 500 meters and about ten kilometers from Cosenza. It has medieval origins and in the center you can visit the church of San Nicola di Bari, the Campagna palace and the clock tower, symbol of the town.

Simple path but that needs breath. Beware of the dogs that guard the goats, I do not recommend the walk accompanied by an animal.

Monte Cocuzzo, with its 1541 meters, is the highest peak of the Coastal Chain. The shape reminds a volcano, however today scholars think that it is a mountain of dolomitic formation.
