Tour of Valle Scappuccia
A tour leaving from Capo la Villa, in one of the best-preserved environments of the Marches
- Duration: 55 min
- Difficulty Level: T
- Length: 3.15 km
- Difference in height: 155m
Typology: ring-route
Trail markers: 107 D, 107 AG
From the village of Capo la Villa, take the carriage road leading uphill to the mountain. After about 300m of steep uphill trail, turn right (in front of you, the trail continues uphill towards Colle Bertone Pass) and take a beautiful trail which, across a thick woodland, leads down with hairpin bends into the very green valley. Once you reach the valley bottom, follow the course of the brook on the right until you reach a rocky wall closing the valley. Through a fissure in the rock, formed in ancient times by the erosion of torrent Scappuccia, come out from the valley and reach an asphalt road. Go ahead on the right along the slightly uphill asphalt road towards the pass connecting with the area of Fossi Lake. Go ahead on the right, uphill, always along the asphalt road, until you reach again the village of Capo la Villa.
