The route of trail 585

From the lake area, where there are two parking lots, the trail climbs decisively: in one and a half kilometers it reaches Montesanto, at 743 m. Here it passes the chapel of the Madonna della Porta, the church of Santa Lucia and the Pieve di Santa Maria Assunta.

The climb continues to about 840 m, at km 2.4, below Monte delle Rote. A long, almost level section follows: at km 3.7 the church of San Pietro in Tutorio and at km 4.3 the church of San Bartolomeo, below Civitella. The last two kilometers descend gently to Mevale, where there are the Pieve di Santa Maria Annunziata, a drinking water point and the Torre di Mevale tower.

Trail 585 technical details

Mevale is a hamlet of the municipality of Visso: the trail therefore passes from Umbria into the Marche region.
