It is suitable for everyone: by mountain bike, for cycling enthusiasts; on foot, for more experienced walkers, for beginners and, why not, even in the company of their dogs. The idea for the entire route is a project of the association “Camminare guarisce” (Walking Heals), which in 2018, involving local and regional institutions, created the itinerary, defining the ring-shaped path around Lake Trasimeno, using the paths already marked out by the C.A.I or other associations. The “route” as a promotion of the culture of walking, with its symbolism of a slow, green and sustainable route. Wear technical clothing and, depending on the weather, a hat or a waterproof cape. Backpack on your shoulders and off you go! Below we suggest an itinerary that starts from Passignano but, given its circular nature, obviously does not have a fixed starting and finishing point.
