All'inizio di questa tappa si può decidere se concludere il Cammino andando a Sanzeno grazie alla Variante della tappa 3 oppure proseguire con la Tappa numero 3.
A fairly demanding stage in terms of length. It can be divided in two with an intermediate stop in Cis.
At this stage you have the chance to walk back to Sanzeno and finish the Jacope d'Anaunia Path in just 3 days. Here the details to the variant of III stage!
On the Path you will find in Preghena the sixteenth-century church of St. Anthony with its external facade characterised by fifteenth-century frescoes depicting St. Sebastian, St. Christopher and St. Bernard. In Baselga dei Bresimo there is the church/sanctuary of Santa Maria Assunta. In San Giacomo di Caldes there is the parish church dedicated to San Giacomo il Maggiore (of Compostela).

Safety information
The Path is well signposted, with the presence of the symbol of the stylised shell in yellow and various tables indicating the way. You can follow ancient paths connecting small towns and ancient roads that led to the sanctuaries, destination of pilgrimages. There are short stretches of roads with little traffic.
Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Turn-by-turn directions
After leaving Rumo, passing along a stretch of road and a nice path in the woods you arrive in the so-called Mezzalone, in Preghena. Go up a stretch of the main road towards Bresimo and immerse yourself in a silent landscape that preserves naturalistic and ethnographic aspects similar to the past. The first village encountered is Baselga di Bresimo, which houses the important church of Santa Maria Assunta (national monument) famous for its 15th century frescoes. After Bevia and Fontana Nuova, near the church of Bresimo, take the direction of the Venetian Sawmill and follow the noisy Barnès to Cis. Here we take the Roman road that leads through orchards and woods to San Giacomo di Caldes.
We reach Samoclevo and then Terzolas, and this marks the end of the stage.

Equipment
Anyone who sets out and wants to get to their destination without problems must wear a good pair of comfortable shoes, preferably with a sculpted sole (like Vibram) and ankle protection (like hiking pedules), but in which the foot is firmly fixed to prevent the formation of blisters or, worse still, risk a sprain. It is also good to have a stick (or better still, telescopic sticks) to help you along the way, especially in some more challenging passages.Statistics
