The trail retracing St Francis' last journey to Assisi is characterized by important historical-naturalistic features.
From Assisi, after some ups and downs, along the forest road of Fonte Maddalena, avoiding the original trail closed because of a landslide, you will reach Costa di Trex; follow the road to Armenzano; go downhill to Ponte Cavaliero, stepping over Fosso Marchetto ravine. A detour leads to Satriano Church. Cross a woodland, and a dirt road will lead to Villa di Postignano, where you can meet the ruins of Rocca di Postignano. Go down to the valley bottom.
