Hiking in Comano

Varied, predominantly shaded circular route from Sassalbo around the Passo del Cerreto with beautiful views of the Ligurian Mountains

The Grande Escursione Appenninica cut short for easy access by train and seeing the best parts in only 1 week on 240 km.

A rather simple hike with signage always clearly visible. The only slightly more challenging section is the final ascent from the saddle to the summit of Monte Acuto. Nevertheless, it is a route rated as E. Don't forget to stop at the Sarzana Refuge.

The Ladder to the Heavens of LunigianaMonte Alto is one of the most rugged mountains at the northern border of Tuscany and showcases every aspect of scenic beauty. Its marked ridge route is especially fascinating, attracting experienced mountaineers with challenging climbing sections.

At the beginning, the route develops in a beech forest, mainly downhill, up to the glaciers where there is a bivouac with 4 beds and light, a stream, and a barbecue area. After the glaciers, the shaded areas thin out until reaching a long green ravine up to the Passo di Pietra Tagliata; from here starts a short but steep via ferrata of about 20 meters with steel cables. Then you climb almost vertically up to the Alpe di Succiso. From here you descend to Costa up to Casatola and then again up to the Passo Scalucchia.

Gentle land, wild landSet out to explore the whimsical nature of the Lunigiana: Along an ancient mountain pass route into the Po Valley, over alpine meadows with views extending to the Ligurian mountains – and through rubble emerging from massive storm scars.

Through the 'Park of a Hundred Lakes'West of Passo di Lagastrello, the Ice Age glaciers left countless lakes of all sizes and shapes in the Apennines. On this tour through the 'Parco dei 100 Laghi' you will see some of them – some up close, others from the airy Apennine main ridge. A solitary approach to an impressive and partly exposed ridge. Return via old paths and abandoned roads. The European long-distance trail E1 forms the ascent, and the ridge and the return path are a variant of this long-distance trail.

An ancient trade and pilgrimage route to Rome, serving as an alternative to the Via Francigena

Circular hike starting from Passo del Cerreto, crossing the Camporaghena meadows and the village of Sassalbo, returning via the Lombardi trail.

The circular hike begins at Passo Cerreto, where you can stop for food and drink. However, it can also be started and finished in Sassalbo, then you have places to stop along the way. You travel through the shady forest for more than half of the route. Many paths are often heavily overgrown, so long pants are recommended. After Sassalbo, some tracking sense is needed in the wide riverbed. But with the GPS track, it should work well.
