After breakfast, the walk, also possible by e-bike, will allow you to discover two villages in the area: Giano dell'Umbria, located at the foot of the Martani Mountains, has its own Castle as well as the valuable San Felice Abbey, with the 6th century crypt where the remains of the Saint are kept. We then continue to Castel Ritaldi, born from the merger of three medieval villages: Castel Ritaldi, precisely, Colle del Marchese and Castel San Giovanni where the Castle is located, also built by Cardinal Albornoz in 1376
