The following is a selection of trekking trips in the Apuan Alps and on the islands in the Tuscan archipelago.

Arco

 


the Apuane Alps park from North to South
Programme – 4 days/3 nights

The mountainous ridge located in the Apuan Alps park is quite unusual; despite the fact that it is close to the sea and its peaks are not particularly high, it deserves nonetheless the name “Alps” because of its geomorphic features, characterised by sharp peak, steep faces and deep valleys. Its views are uniquely beautiful. The route heads from the North-West to the South-East starting at Mount Freddone to the North and ending near the village of Casoli to the South, near Camaiore, through areas of bare rock and beech woods.
