On November 27, 2026—Green Friday—Faccio Tardi is offering the “Hermitages Excursion” as an alternative to Black Friday. No shopping, no shopping malls: just a day spent among trails, silence, and history in the heart of the Valnerina valley.
The route
The route covers 14 km with an elevation gain of 700 m, largely along a dirt road. It is a Class E (hiking) trail and takes approximately 6 hours to complete, excluding breaks and lunch. The path passes by two inhabited hermitages and various sites of natural and historical interest.
Meeting point, schedule, and participation
The meeting point is at 8:00 AM in the hamlet of Campi di Norcia, approximately 15 minutes from the center of Norcia. The exact location will be sent via email after booking. Lunch at a restaurant—not included in the price—will take place after 2:00 PM. The return is scheduled for between 4:00 PM and 5:30 PM. The activity will run even with a single booking, with a maximum capacity of 20 participants. It is recommended for ages 13 and up; dogs on a leash are permitted.
What to bring and costs
You will need hiking boots with a rugged sole, layered clothing, a waterproof garment, and at least half a liter of water per person. The cost is €22.50 for adults and €15 for those under 18, provided they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. The fee includes an AIGAE-certified guide and liability insurance. The excursion will take place even in the event of bad weather; it will only be rescheduled for the following day if an official weather alert is issued. For those who are unable to attend and provide notice more than 48 hours in advance, a voucher valid for 12 months will be provided.
