6 hours.
Moderately fit walkers who can sustain 10 km with several hundred meters of ascent; steady footing in tunnels required.
Guided trips run about six hours covering roughly 10 km with 350–450 m of ascent—rated moderate and suited to walkers in reasonable shape.
Tunnels are safe with the guide but are unlit; bring a headlamp and wear sturdy footwear for uneven surfaces.
Children used to hikes and older adults in good health can participate, but those with spinal, heart or pregnancy restrictions should avoid it per operator guidance.
The operator cancels in heavy rain or unsafe tunnel conditions; check the 24‑hour cancellation policy for refunds.
The route follows pre-Roman crossing lines and the early 20th‑century Spoleto–Norcia railway; the line was dismantled in the 1970s, leaving engineered tunnels and railbeds to explore.
The gorge and river ecosystem are sensitive—stay on the railbed, pack out litter and avoid disturbing nesting birds or riverbanks to limit erosion.
