Stage 09 bis – Caramanico Terme – Santo Spirito di Maiella

From the Maiella Park Visitor Center, proceed downhill to the bottom of the Orfento Valley and ascend the watercourse to take the path leading to the hamlet of Decontra (section coinciding with the initial section of the 9th Stage). From here we proceed uphill on a stretch first through pasture and then through the thick beech forest to the rock abbey of Santo Spirito di Maiella, the end of the stage.
