The route of trail 241 (Camerino)

The trail starts from the village. Within 100-200 meters of the start there are three parking lots, a few drinking water points and the church of San Francesco.

In the first 700 meters the trail passes through an area rich in caves. There are about ten within a few dozen or a few hundred meters of the route: the closest is the Grotticella, about twenty meters away; then the Grotta Preistorica, the Grotta di It, the Grotta dei Cinghiali and the Grotta Nottulana.

The gradient never eases: the trail gains a hundred meters of elevation every 200-250 meters of walking. After about a kilometer, at 890 m, trail 241A arrives from Ormagnano. From there 450 meters remain, with another 190 m of elevation gain, to the end point.

Trail 241 (Camerino) technical details

Trail 241 is graded E on the CAI scale: it is short, but the constant gradient makes it tiring uphill and demanding downhill.
