The paths wind between hills scented with myrtle and rosemary, pass through villages frozen in time, and open up to breathtaking panoramas. At sunrise, the beaches become carpets of gold where hooves leave their imprint in the still-fresh sand. In the Pollino National Park, deep forests and rocky ridges offer seasoned riders wild and silent trails, where you might occasionally encounter the furtive glance of a fox or the flight of a golden eagle.

TREKKING

What is trekking? It’s a long-distance hike, often self-sufficient, with camping or rustic accommodations. It takes place in areas that are difficult to access: mountains, deserts, jungles, etc. The word comes from the Afrikaans word “trekken,” which means “to travel” or “to migrate.”
