After about 200 metres from the Sanctuary of Poggio Bustone (Convent of Saint James 818m), take path number 421 on the left with directions for Cima D’Arme. The path is marked with Red-White-Red flags.

The walk goes uphill towards the Sacro Speco and then steps take you downhill only to rise again on a steep climb until the Scogli di San Francesco (a cross and a small grotto). The walk resumes uphill until the Prati di San Giacomo at a height of 1301 metres. At this beautiful clearing the walk becomes a dirt road that is taken until the Sella di Cima D’Arme at 1395 metres. It continues on to the Fonte Petrinara at 1419 metres.

From the Fonte, path number 420 leads to the Sella Monte Versanello at 1524 metres at which point path number 402 winds along the following route: Passo del Lupo, 1690m - Sella di Cantalice, 1545m – Sella di Vall’Organo, 1850m. From here, the walk proceeds towards the “La Fossa” Refuge at 1505m and then onto a dirt road for about 2.5 kilometres that leads to the Pian de’ Valli.

Pilgrim's Tales
Peace, tranquility, silence abounding in memories…
White trails of steel horses streak the sky, the noisy rattle of revolving turbines is relegated to a distant oblivion, peace, tranquility, silence abounding in memories… the burden of centuries is soaked with the present, the timeless faces of the monks that, like the heavy... freccia

Meravigliosa Valle Santa!
“Questi luoghi sono veramente tutti da scoprire. Avevo fatto il Cammino di Santiago e sono rimasto sorpreso nel trovarmi qui, in Italia, questa natura generosa e questa spiritualità contagiosa. Consiglio a tutti di venire nella Valle Santa.”
