The millennia-old culture, the picturesque landscapes, the exquisite food and the loud yet charming people make Italy a magical country unlike any other. Walk with all senses open through the beautiful countryside of South Tyrol, take a dip in Lake Garda after a hot day, climb the impressive Italian Alps, taste the excellent food in Piedmont and relax on a white sandy beach in Southern Italy. There's something for everyone in Italy.

South Tyrol

Not Italy but not Austria - just South Tyrol - the area has a mix of alpine cosiness and southern temperament with influences from two very special countries. That's the charm of beautiful South Tyrol. In addition, there is a magical landscape, an exciting and delicious cuisine and small beautiful villages. Explore South Tyrol on foot on Hiking in the Dolomites Nature Parks, discover the Dolomites 'High Route' on Mountain Hiking in the Dolomites - Alta Via!

Piedmont

Dear friends with good taste, now take notes! We have just the hiking holiday for you. A walking holiday through 'Slow food' country, where the actual preparation of the food is still celebrated with hours of dedication and love, where a good wine still belongs to a good meal, where the flourishing rice fields are at your feet and the romantic vineyards make everyone stop and enjoy the moment.

If you want to discover unique and ancient cities while walking in the footsteps of history, we recommend the Via Francigena, a unique pilgrimage. Discover impressive cities like Lucca, Siena, San Gimignano and enjoy the feeling of stepping back in time. See our Via Francigena Walking Tour VF5.

The italian climate

The climate in Italy is incredibly varied. In South Tyrol, hikers can expect a mild mountain climate and as you would expect in the Alps, winters are cold. That's why our hiking season in the Alps starts in May or June, when the snow is typically gone.
The climate gets milder if you head a little south towards Lake Garda, for example. If you go even further south to Liguria and Piedmont, the climate becomes Mediterranean. Southern Italy gets very hot in summer, so the perfect time for hiking in this area is spring and autumn. It is in pleasant heat that hiking is most beautiful.

You love to hike, but you usually just stay in your local area because a city-to-city hiking trip seems too much of a hassle.

We'll make sure you book the good hotels, make sure your luggage is taken from hotel to hotel, and we've already found the best route for you. It's all served to you on arrival at the first hotel, after which you simply follow the route descriptions and enjoy the beautiful scenery. It couldn't be easier!
