An easy walk around Cagli, among fields and low hills. You walk on dirt roads and dirt tracks at the edge of the fields. Although you always remain at low altitudes, the view extends over the entire mountain range that goes from Monte Nerone to Monte Catria, with glimpses that also reach the Furlo gorge and the Frontone castle. An area rich in water,…

A short and easy hike, consisting of just one ascent and one descent. The initial stretch follows a dirt road along the Palombara Valley, then descends along Via Cupa, a pleasant dirt road with beautiful views of the rugged rocky slopes of Monte Roma. It skirts the hills of Poggio Pantano and Poggio Pantanello and passes through Petrara and Pianello, two hamlets of Serra Sant'Abbondio.

This walk is long, but not demanding, with only a few moderate climbs. It develops in a little-known and little-frequented area, full of small villages and isolated houses. Montevecchio and Montajate are the two main points of interest, which will not disappoint you. But what excites are the views that open in every direction, including, above all, those that show the long ridge that from…

The route is short, but with some steep climbs. The loop begins in Serra Sant'Abbondio and circumnavigates two paired peaks called La Crocetta and Monte Tordo. The climb is very scenic, with beautiful views of Monte Catria, Corno del Catria, and Monte Acuto. You arrive near the Cingualdese spring and pass through the small, almost uninhabited village of Piccione, but…

A beautiful trail that follows mostly grassy dirt roads flanked by woods between Frontone and Serra Sant'Abbondio. It skirts the hills of Poggio Pantano, Poggio Pantanello, and Monte Tordo, bringing you close to the Fonte della Cingualdese spring. As you walk, you pass through the three small villages of Pianello, Piccione, and Colombara. Always very scenic, it offers beautiful views of the Palombara Valley and the hills...

A challenging route, both in length and elevation gain, but very interesting and scenic. From Petrara, it reaches the La Cingualdese refuge and returns, taking the dirt road of Monte Roma. Once at the top, the view is dominated by the peaks of Monte Catria and Monte Acuto, with the steep, jagged rock faces of Corno del Catria and the…

A route that takes just over an hour, but shouldn't be underestimated due to the very steep initial climb. It runs alongside the Cinisco Valley and has Monte Acuto as a reference point in front of you. The descent is easy and entirely through the woods. If you're short on time and are near Frontone, this is definitely a recommended route, with beautiful views of the Cinisco Valley and towards...

A short but enjoyable route that circumnavigates Mount Spicchio, near Frontone, and winds through the two valleys of the Cinisco and Mandrale Rivers, crossing the latter twice. The almost alpine vegetation is remarkable, characterized by reforestation of black pine in the second section of the route.

An easy-medium trail of less than 7 km, sharing part of the route with Monte Acuto trail 261 and the Cammino dei Cappuccini. A single climb leads to a beautiful panoramic spot where the Genga Rossa spur rises. Continuing, you reach the road that climbs to the hermitage of the Madonna dell'Acquanera and descend through the small villages of Ca' d'Eusepio and…

The trail's highlight is the charming hamlet of Paravento, famous for its living nativity scene and the site of the great battle of June 1944 between partisan and Nazi-Fascist forces. The walk is easy, with only a few easy climbs. Like all the trails described in these pages, although it doesn't ascend very high, it offers magnificent views of the villages, countryside, and mountains of...
