Saint Francis's Wood
Saint Francis Wood is a managed walking route descending from the upper basilica toward the Tescio valley. Olive groves, wooded paths and medieval remains make it a landscape visit with paid seasonal entry.
Saint Francis Wood takes you from Assisi’s stone streets into olive groves, a wooded path and medieval remains. As the route descends from the upper basilica toward the Tescio valley, the sanctuary sits within a broader landscape. The change in setting gives the hilltop church and the surrounding countryside a clearer relationship than a visit to the basilica alone.
What to look for
A managed woodland descent with olive groves and medieval remains.
Useful to know
