The first Umbrian stage of the Via Romea Germanica starts from Pozzuolo and follows a section that runs partly along roads and partly across gentle hills cultivated with vineyards, offering views over Lake Chiusi and Lake Trasimeno. The route passes alongside archaeological excavation areas where Etruscan tombs have been discovered, with explanatory panels available along the way.

The itinerary crosses the villages of Gioiella, Vaiano and Villastrada, where it is possible to admire a ceramic mural depicting the Via Romea along Lake Trasimeno. The route then continues towards Cantagallina before finally reaching Paciano, a town listed among the “Most Beautiful Villages in Italy,” which is accessed through Porta Fiorentina.
