Day #5: Visso Tour
Itinerary 4This day is certainly to be considered the most demanding and most fantastic day of the whole week. There are stretches of very steep slopes and will be quite athletically demanding.
This time we leave from Sarnano instead of San Severino Marche due to the long distance which needs to be covered. On this route we will discover the Sibillini mountains crossing Amandola, Mount Fortino, the Castelluccio plains and Visso. This is the heart of the Umbro-Marches mountain range, breathtaking views, extremely steep slopes that will really put you to the test. This route is not less challenging than any alpine-dolomite mountain pass.
The most noteworthy moments are the breathtaking views from the Castelluccio plateau famous for the cultivation of lentils, and the discovery of the flora and fauna in the natural park of Sibillini Mountains. We then reach the small mountainous village of Visso and from there we take a bus back to San Severino Marche. The distance covered is about 86 Km (53.4 miles). on an athletically demanding route.
