From the medieval village of Sarnano the path goes into the countryside until you reach the hamlet of Grassetti. From here a slight climb through the woods makes you take the Via dei Mercatali, an ancient medieval route frequented since ancient times by cattle merchants who came to Sarnano for fairs. Continue to the Salaria Gallica, the Roman road of the Ager Gallicus, of which traces of cobbles still are evident. Walking in the woods laying your feet on a Roman cobblestone, along a street unknown even to most inhabitants of the territory is a unique experience.

The route continues between the streets until you reach Amandola, a town with a characteristic medieval structure, the gateway to the Monti Sibillini National Park and the orange flag of the Touring Club. Among the monuments stand out the church of Sant'Agostino or sanctuary of Blessed Anthony dating back to the 15th century, characterised by a Gothic-style portal of Venetian inspiration, and the church of San Francesco, unfortunately currently closed due to the damage of the 2016 earthquake. From Piazza Umberto I, known by the citizens as Piazza Alta, you can admire one of the most beautiful views of the Sibillini mountain range. 

Leaving Amandola, in the direction of Ascoli Piceno, you return to walk the Gallic salaria meeting a fortified mill of strategic importance for the rural economy and of valuable architectural features. This guarded the access road to the city, the water reserves, the grain silos and the nearby bridge.  The 13th-century Donkey-back Romanesque bridge that you cross immediately after, stands on a small canyon carved by the Tenna River. 

Between mule tracks, Roman bridges and dense vegetation you reach the church of Madonna delle Grazie, an oasis of hermitage, silence and prayer, with two cells for the reception of no more than 4 pilgrims. The structure, solitary and immersed in the greenery of the countryside, was born as a sacred aedicule in the fourteenth century and later became a church and then a harmitage. Shortly after the hermitage, entering the municipality of Comunanza and then in the province of Ascoli Piceno, you meet the church of San Pietro in Castagna. It is a church founded in the Lombard period (9th century). The sandstone bas-reliefs that grace the portal are a classic example of the fine style of that period.

Continue along the path between woods and white roads until you enter Comunanza.
