The adventure begins in Norcia with a welcome at the hotel, where you will meet Francesco, the official guide of the Sibillini Mountains, who will explain the program and share some interesting facts about the places you will visit. After a dinner featuring local flavors, such as the famous black truffle and Norcia lentils, you will be ready for an evening stroll to discover the medieval village.

A relaxing evening to get in tune with the authentic spirit of the Umbria region.

Second day

From Castelluccio to Monte Patino
After a delicious breakfast at the farmhouse, we reach Castelluccio and set off on foot for a circular hike which, with gentle slopes, initially takes us to enjoy the beautiful view of the Piani di Castelluccio and then through fairytale beech woods until we reach the high pastures suspended, as if flying, above the ancient town of Norcia, up to the spectacular summit of the striking pyramid that dominates all the Umbrian Mountains, the Sibillini Mountains and the Monti della Laga.

Third day

The blossoming of Castelluccio and thermal baths We head towards one of the most spectacular places in the Monti Sibillini National Park: the Castelluccio Plain. At this time of year, nature offers a unique enchantment with fields blooming with lentils, poppies, cornflowers, and daisies. We will walk through the Pian Grande, Pian Piccolo, and Pian Perduto. We will then move on to Acquasanta Terme, at the foot of the Monti della Laga, and take a walk to "Lu Vurghe," a hidden corner of paradise with thermal waters. Return to the hotel and then end the day with a traditional Umbrian dinner, featuring authentic flavors.

Fourth day

Trekking in Pantani di Accumoli
Let's start with an excursion to the karst basin of Pantani di Accumoli, on the border between the Monti Sibillini National Park and the ancient Bourbon Kingdom. We will walk through woods to discover natural ponds and a rich biodiversity. In the afternoon, there will be a cheese tasting at a local producer, and those who wish (optional activity) can try rafting on the Corno River, an exciting activity to explore the Biselli Gorge amidst rapids and wild landscapes. After some relaxation at the hotel, we will enjoy a dinner featuring authentic Umbrian flavors: truffles and lentils are a must!

Fifth day

Spoleto-Norcia Former Railway Cycle Route
We will reach Sant'Anatolia di Narco to begin cycling along the Spoleto-Norcia Spoleto-Norcia, one of the most fascinating in Europe. We will cross scenic bridges and evocative tunnels, with breathtaking views of the Umbrian Valley, until we reach the historic center of Spoleto.

Sixth day

We take a few more moments to admire the breathtaking view of the Castelluccio's blossoms: an explosion of colors that will remain etched in our memories. It's time to say goodbye to the Sibillini Mountains, which have welcomed us with their beauty and unforgettable experiences: trekking, bicycle excursions along the former Spoleto-Norcia railway line, authentic flavors such as black truffles and Norcia lentils, and moments of sharing and relaxation in the thermal waters. It was a true immersion in traditions and enchanted landscapes. Anunforgettable experience for the summer of 2026, taking you to Umbria.
