The route of Sibillini trail 559
At the Forca Ventosola there are parking lots, a viewpoint and, about three hundred meters away, a drinking water point. The first section, for about 700 meters, coincides with the variant of the Cammino nelle Terre Mutate.
The trail begins by descending: in just over two kilometers it loses about a hundred meters, down to 1,411 m, the lowest point. From there it climbs for almost three kilometers, with the gradient increasing toward the end: in the last nine hundred meters it gains about 110 m, up to Monte Guaidone.
