Perugia (PG) - The section of Perugia G. Bellucci's ITALIAN ALPINE CLUB organizes Thursday, June 13, 2013 the walk in the valley Castoriana "Andar per hermitages." The itinerary starts from the Abbey of S. Eutizio (700 m) from which, in short, we arrive at the village of Valle, and for scenic trail, the Hermitage of S.Fiorenzo, one of many places that have made hermit the famous Val Castoriana.
YES then continues to climb along the path that converges on the dirt road that climbs from Collescille and that leads to moderate climb to the saddle between the M.Moricone (1429 m) and M.Lungo (1252). Walk along the crest of the latter with stunning panoramic views over the Sibillini and on the Valle di Norcia and Country dell'Acquaro. Once all'insellatura before the M.Macchialunga along a path that crossed a picturesque grove of beech trees, sometimes steeply down to the valley in the direction of field.
A short detour leads to the remains of the hermitage of San Biagio, a time-dependent from the Abbey of St. Eutizio and the Church of Our Lady of pressimità Conducted in a beautiful fountain. A path leads up the hillside village of Old Fields (874 m).
