1 Trip Notes Trip Code: LTF Country: Italy Amended: September 2013 Edition No: OG Valid from: 01 Jan Dec 2014 FOOTSTEPS OF ST FRANCIS HIGHLIGHTS Superb walking in Italy's undiscovered 'Green Heart': deep lush forests, impressive limestone gorges, rare flora and fauna World-famous Assisi and ancient Spello, one of the best preserved mediaeval towns in Italy Exceptionally friendly hotels - panoramic swimming pools at all - 4 nights in 4 - star comfort hotel Highly prized black truffles, the finest of olive oils, Italy's famous Sagrantino wines Romantic Apennine peaks, soft terracotta colours, perched villages with stunning views Wonderfully wild Subasio Natural Park SUMMARY This independent 8-night walking holiday follows a circular loop, exploring the rich rolling countryside of the Assisi valley, one of the most beautiful corners of Italy, and the true green heart of the country. It's a sun-drenched region of deep lush forests, impressive limestone gorges, majestic lakes and stunning mediaeval villages seemingly unchanged over the years with superb views! The walking is relaxed and unhurried, re-tracing in part the trail St Francis took on his last visit to the town in 1226, and taking in the sacred woodland that for years has been tendered and cared for by the Franciscan monks. It's a rural route, brimming with rare flora and fauna, along ancient forest tracks, through centuries-old forests and passing olive groves dating back to Roman times. The places we've selected for you to stay in are pretty special too. In Assisi, Signor Piampiano's friendly hotel is ideally located just minutes from the historic centre, and boasts a panoramic pool and spa facilities. You also stay in a prestigious 4 - star countryside retreat in the heart of the Monte Subasio natural park, the grounds of Le Silve are spread over 230 hectares of spectacular countryside! In mediaeval Spello, you'll stay in a magnificent 17th century former mill, crammed with numerous works of art and a wine cellar packed with over 900 bottles! This trip is run in conjunction with our sister company Headwater. IS THIS TRIP FOR YOU? Grade: 2 (Leisurely/ Moderate) The paths are generally waymarked and well maintained, predominantly through woodland and with plenty of shade. There are frequent ascents and descents, so you need to be reasonably fit and confident. This trip includes good challenging walks, medieval hilltop villages and fantastic hotels, therefore would suit anyone who is fit and interested in walking and enjoy stunning scenery! This is a self-guided tour, as such there will be no group or tour leader and you are free to complete the walks at your own pace.

3 WEATHER AND SEASONALITY RESPONSIBLE TOURISM Tourism can be a real help to local communities, providing income, positive cultural exchanges and a financial incentive to protect their natural environment.

Passports and Visas Most nationalities, including British, require a full passport that must be valid for 6 months beyond the intended length of stay. It is your responsibility to have the correct personal documents and to obtain your own visa, if one is necessary, in accordance with the regulations of the country you are to visit. The information below is primarily for UK passport holders, and other nationalities should check with their travel agent or the relevant embassies. We are not responsible for the actions of local immigration and customs officials, whether at points of entry or otherwise, and any subsequent effects. Certain European nationalities may be able to travel within Europe on their national identity card. Check carefully with the relevant authorities if you intend to do this. No visa required for British passport holders. Please note in Italy it is compulsory to carry ID with you at all times. Visa regulations can change without notice: please check the current regulations in good time to obtain a visa if one is required. Vaccinations and Health Travel health can often be something people forget about before going away, but a little preparation and knowledge can go a long way to help you stay fit and healthy while abroad. There are no specific health risks on this trip. The above information can change at short notice; as we are not qualified to answer all your questions about travel health we strongly recommend you contact your Medical Professional or a Travel Health Clinic at least 8 weeks prior to departure for up-to-date information. Insurance - are you adequately covered? You must have adequate travel insurance, and if you are joining a trip which goes to high altitude, you must check that you are covered up to the maximum altitude of the trip. If you are resident in the UK we strongly recommend Exodus travel insurance, which is specifically designed to cover all activities on your trip. If you are a UK citizen and travelling in Europe you should obtain the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) from your Post Office. This gives free medical care in many European countries, but should not be considered a substitute for adequate insurance. Local Time GMT +1 (+2 in summer) Full details of how to reach the start point (including local emergency numbers) will be sent to you as part of your Final Joining Instructions approximately two weeks before departure. If you do not receive these at least a week before departure, or require them earlier please contact our office or your travel agent. 3

Essential Equipment and Clothing Light walking boots (good walking trainers will suffice) Small daypack for camera, guidebook, etc. Water bottle to use when walking and sightseeing Sun cream Hat Sunglasses Waterproofs Warm clothes As fuel prices, airport taxes and exchange rates fluctuate, and airlines manage their rates to match demand, it is proving harder than ever to guarantee our Flight Inclusive prices.
