The route of Sibillini trail 572

In San Pellegrino, which trail 515 from Norcia also passes through, there are a drinking water point right at the start and the Fontanile, a water trough, near the church. The climb is continuous and fairly steep, with an average gradient of 16 percent.

At km 1.6 the trail passes a couple of hundred meters from a viewpoint and a parking lot; at km 2.7 another parking lot is seventy meters from the trail, a sign that a road comes close here. Right after comes the only almost level section, about three hundred meters long. The last 1.3 km are the hardest: over 250 m of elevation gain up to the junction with trail 571.

Trail 572 technical details

The return is an uninterrupted descent of 755 m. Beyond San Pellegrino there are no water points along the trail.

The summit of Monte Ventòsola, at 1,718 m, is just above.
