Stage information

Difficulty: moderate. Difficulty recorded in the catalogue.

22 km from Monte Stella (Pazzano) to Sant'Ilarione (Caulonia). An old mule track runs along Monte Mammicomito, limestone like the Dolomites on one side, bergamot and olive groves on the other, with wild orchids in spring. You cross the Precariti at Valenti, pass Campoli on its cliff and the Allaro, then climb to the Eremo di Sant'Ilarione on a granite spur, where you can sleep if you book ahead.
