Cammino San Benedetto Day - Perfect Italian hiking. Day 8: Castel di Tora to Ostello San Michele

The Cammino di San Benedetto (The way of St. Benedict) is a 300km hike in central Italy linking three of the most important places associated with Saint Benedict: it begins in Norcia where he was born; passes through Subiaco where he founded his first monastic house and the trail ends at the great abbey of Montecassino, where he wrote his rule, laying out the form that monasticism takes to this day.
It begins in Umbria, but soon crosses the border into Lazio, where it remains for the rest of the hike.
Day 8 of the Cammino di San Benedetto between Castel di Tora and Ostello San Michele was a glorious day of hiking. Although the day started out misty, it soon burnt off and the rest of the day was just sunshine and fluffy clouds.
The first half of the day was an ascent of about 700 metres, but the reward was the spectacular views over mountains, lakes and woodlands. After passing through Pozzaglia Sabina, it was a steady descent and then sharp ascent to Orvinio and three kilometres later, to my camping site at Ostello San Michele.
Just a perfect day of hiking in the heart of Italy.
