概要
クイックファクト: The trail winds through the largest national park in Italy, covering over 180,000 hectares of rugged mountains, ancient forests, and rocky gorges. Hikers often spot wild boar, golden eagles, and even the elusive Italian wolf along the way.
見どころ: One section of the trail passes through the "Gole del Fortunato", a narrow limestone gorge where sunlight barely reaches the canyon floor. The rock walls here glow amber at midday and the only sound is water dripping from ancient ferns.
インサイダーヒント
- Wear sturdy hiking boots with ankle support; the rocky terrain is slippery even when dry.
- Start your hike by 7:00 AM to catch the morning mist lifting over the valley and avoid the afternoon heat.
- Stop at the Bivacco Monte Scuro shelter for a packed lunch, it has a spring-fed water fountain nearby.
- Bring binoculars for spotting griffon vultures circling above the limestone cliffs.
