| Realm of the Sybil – Central Apennine Mountain Walking Tour:
An ancient pilgrim route, narrow gorges, ridge views, mystical sites, an alpine plain, and an emerald lake await you on an outdoor adventure in Italy’s cleanest air. With a healthy mix of short and longer hikes, your day might find you wading the crisp, clear waters that carved the steep, narrow gorge of Gola Fiastrone … strolling through fields bursting with wildflowers en route to the ice-blue tarn of Pilate’s legendary watery grave … or ascending to a peak with views from the Adriatic into Umbria, below it the cave where the mythical Sybil tempted adventurers into a lifetime of lustful captivity.
Rest days take in Marche’s best-preserved Roman ruins, built in honour of Masada’s conqueror, and visited by 1st and 3rd century Romans as a holiday destination … Italy’s only caricature museum … the healing waters of a mountain spa … or any number of a host of other cultural and relaxing outings.
Each day your energy is recharged by hearty mountain fare that makes all the effort worthwhile. |
