Stage 5: Baschi to Tenaglie
“The Sunlit Hills” — Cammino dei Borghi Silenti, Umbria
At a glance: stage 5 of the Cammino dei Borghi Silenti runs from Baschi to Tenaglie: 16 km with 648 m of ascent and 481 m of descent.
The final 16 km cross open farmland and bright rolling hills, with an early climb providing the last sustained effort of the circuit. By now the terrain feels familiar and the walking rhythm usually takes care of itself.
Returning to Tenaglie gives this route a satisfying full stop. With every stage stamped in the credential, walkers can collect the completion certificate — and perhaps stay one more night rather than rushing straight home.
The loop closes back at Tenaglie, where a fully stamped credential earns the completion certificate.
Tenaglie and nearby Montecchio have B&Bs and farm stays that also work well for the night before the walk. Arriving the evening before stage one makes for a much calmer start.
Median price for one night (25 September, 1 adult) among 16 places to stay within 15 km: 64 €. These cost less and are rated at least 4/5.
