With this stage, the Via Romea Germanica leaves the Umbria region and heads towards Lazio along a route that is slightly more demanding than the previous stages. After leaving Ficulle behind, the itinerary continues to Allerona Scalo. The route then crosses the Paglia River, along which the remains of the ancient Ponte Giulio can still be seen.
Upon reaching Sferracavallo, the silhouette of Orvieto Cathedral already appears in the distance. In less than two kilometres, the route reaches the historic centre of this remarkable town, where the stage concludes.
