The St Francis Way from La Verna to Assisi is about 180 km long and is usually divided into 8 to 10 stages. Our trips are normally 7 days long, and we split some stages to make them suitable for less experienced walkers.
The St Francis Way in Tuscany with SloWays is a self-guided walking holiday designed to explore one of the most scenic sections of the Via di Francesco, between forests, medieval villages and spiritual sites. We organize accommodation, luggage transfers and support, so you can experience the route at your own pace.
Describing the St Francis Way pilgrimage is not an easy task – it touches something within us that words are not enough to describe.
Following St. Francis's steps means getting comfortably lost between woods and olive groves, hamlets and cathedrals; Spello with its flower-filled alleys, Spoleto with its fortress, Medieval Anghiari, Energetic Assisi; river pathways and forest paths immersed in the trees, where listening to the silence and nature sounds is as important as walking.
