Private transfer from Assisi to Cascia - Roccaporena - Norcia
Located in the most mountainous area of Umbria, Cascia and Norcia are an unmissable destination for religious tourism and for lovers of good food!
Norcia: San Benedetto's Church, Town Hall, Monumental Complex of San Francesco, surrounding walls.
The birthplace of San Benedetto, home of the Black Truffle and the art of pork butchery, will capture you in a unique and unforgettable spectacle of colours, aromas and flavours! Situated close to the Sibillini Mountains and considered the most evocative center of the Valnerina, Norcia offers splendid scenery of uncontaminated nature! Especially during the flowering period, when the Castelluccio plateau shows its best natural spectacle.
Cascia: Located in the most mountainous area of Umbria, Cascia owes its importance to the sanctuary built in the name of Santa Rita, one of the most important spiritual centers in the region and a famous pilgrimage destination... but also to its renowned hospitality and good food !
Roccaporena: birthplace of the saint, which preserves the memories of her life as a young woman, as a wife, as a mother and, after the cruel murder of her husband, as a widow. You will be able to see his house, which has now become a chapel, the prayer rock on which he meditated, the rose garden and the miracle garden, where during a freezing winter of 1457, a few days before his death, a rose blossomed and a fig ripened .
