Arcevia and its castles, nestled in the green of the woods, between high walls where time has stopped.Medium-high difficulty path for the numerous climbs, which however are short and with modest slope. Surely the beauty of this path makes you forget the fatigue. Passable all year round, but advisable especially in spring-summer and autumn. The roads are almost traffic-free. It is mandatory to stop and visit Arcevia and its Castles that meet along the way.From the Provincial Road Arceviese, at the junction with Barbara, you climb gently for 4 km to Montale and then with a steep but short detour you can decide to climb to Piticchio. Return to the Provincial Road that runs on the ridge, overlooking the mountains up to the San Vicino and on clear days up to the Sibillini Mountains. You then go up to Arcevia. Just outside the town you can enjoy the view of the Strega and Catria mountains. Then, after a short downhill stretch, turn right and take the road of the old quarry and return to Conce and then head towards Vado and Avacelli. There are numerous viewpoints on Arcevia and the mountains behind and towards the sea. After returning to the Maestà Junction, you go down to the castle of Castiglioni, and passing through the center of the small village continue towards Serra de' Conti and Osteria. Then go up to Barbara to go down to the Provincial Corinaldese and then go up to Castelleone di Suasa.On this beautiful and panoramic stretch you will meet one after the other the castles of Loretello, San Pietro and Palazzo. Crossing Montefortino you return to the Conce roundabout and, after a short stretch on the Provincial Arceviese, go up to Montale and take the panoramic road on the ridge to Barbara. From here you descend again on the Provincial Arceviese and return to the starting point."Please refer to the websites and classic tourist guides for the retrieval of information on sites of archaeological, cultural and naturalistic interest that meet along the itinerary".

A short route, but very varied and technical for the characteristics of the road surface, for the continuous ups and downs and for the panoramic views.  For much of the trail, it has been shrouded in the total silence of the countryside. The absence of noise enhances the sounds of nature and amplifies the relationship with the landscape. Spicello is a small agglomeration of houses with about 30 inhabitants and with the Church of St. Joseph, wanted and built by the locals, now a destination for frequent pilgrimages. From Montecucco the view ranges over the hills that slope gently to the sea.From Senigallia you go to Cesano on the Lungomare di Ponente. After the bridge over the river, take Via Cesanense and Via Bastia to the Roundabout on the Provincial road Pergolese. After the double tunnel under the Highway you climb on the dirt road of Via Monteciappellano and from here continue to San Costanzo. In Solfanuccio, turn right and take the Vencareto Road downhill to the Rio Stream and then uphill on a dirt road for 4 km on the Rio Road to Spicello. For a short time follow the provincial road in the direction of Montecucco. From here you can continue almost always downhill on the Monte Bugaro and Piagiolino Road, with a partly broken road surface. On dirt road you walk along Via Santo Stefano and then Via Casale to Ponte Rio. After passing the village you turn right in the middle of the countryside on a small road that runs on the right side of the Rio, up to Molino Vecchio. Finally, return to the asphalt to the Cesano Bridge and then to Senigallia.
