Enjoy the view over the entire city and the mountains surrounding it. If you are lucky, you will also be able to spot the central Adriatic islands! After a brief pause, continue the hike to an old hermitage of Saint Jerome. After a photo stop, you will go down the hill past the churches of Our Lady of Bethlehem and Saint Nicholas back to the old town.
