Walking holidays in Abruzzo Walking holidays in Gran Paradiso Walking holidays in Tuscany Holidays in Cinque Terre

Our walking holidays weave through Tuscan hills and vineyards from village to village. In Gran Paradiso the views of snow peaked alps and tranquil lakes are simply breathtaking.

In Tuscany we are based in San Quirico d'Orcia in the province of Siena, where the views of cypress trees and rolling green hills are the background of Renaissance art. Our walks take us through olive groves and vineyards with opportunities to stop off for a wine-tasting. We visit some stunning Tuscan towns and villages where we will have time to linger and explore.

This is a beautifully balanced holiday- a stunning location, a charming hotel with lots of opportunities to immerse oneself in the history, culture and language of Italy.
WALKING HOLIDAY
ITALY - 2010

Gran Paradiso is an area of extraordinary beauty in the northern alps of Italy, right on the border with France, where the backdrop is snow tipped mountains, crystal clear lakes and waterfalls. We drive high into the mountains to the glacial plains, home of chamois alpine goat, lynx, wolf, golden eagles and marmots. Panoramic views lead us back to Lake Bellagarda.

In the National Park of Abruzzo, we are able to offer two grades of walking in spite of being high in the Apennine mountain chain. The region is famed for its wildlife – brown bear, lynx, chamois and wolf, but perhaps less known are its beautiful stone-built medieval villages.
