Stage 5

Camaldoli → Badia Prataglia

Distance

8.1 km

Elevation

+650 m

Difficulty: easy

Difficulty is computed, not judged: distance in km plus 1 km for every 100 m of climb. Up to 18 is easy, up to 28 moderate, above 28 hard. It doesn't account for terrain, heat or exposure, so read the route's own note too.

After an hour's steep climb this short stage becomes a very agreeable and restful walk along the CAI 072 trail to the pleasant resort town of Badia Prataglia. Either enjoy a rest for tomorrow's more difficult walk to Santuario della Verna, or continue on to Retreat House Santicchio, partway through tomorrow's stage.
