The Way of St. Francis: Italian Trekkers Lift our Spirits

Fresh from a wonderful stay at Le Rasse Country House, just outside of Citerna, we joined fellow Italian trekkers for a quick photo before setting out on our rather grueling (see last post) day of ups and downs. We’d see them several more times throughout the day.

A herd of cattle paused briefly when we interrupted their lunch.

The city of Città di Castella spread out below us, creating quite a contrast to the farms and forests of the last few days.
