  5. THE SACRED FOREST OF CAMALDOLI

The sacred forest of Camaldoli

An extraordinary experience to discover a place of incredible beauty located in the Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona and Campigna Natural Park.

 

A hiking tour completely by the shadow of the millennial Sacred Forest of Camaldoli, full of fir trees, majestic beech trees, and other secular trees such as maple trees, ash trees and so on. The ring trail brings from the Monastery to the Sacred Hermitage (Sacro Eremo), symbol of spirituality and mysticism where centennial trees, for more than a thousand years, surround all the “celle” of monks, little dwellings where they pray and live. A stunning place of great naturalistic and historical importance, with the air filled with freshness which restores tired souls, protecting them from hot summer air.

 

Together we will discover this splendid spot of the province of Arezzo and we will give you the chance to do it in a eco-friendly way. We will organise for you your travel from and to Arezzo with public transport; you will be accompanied by the guide until the starting point of the trip and he will be with you on your way back to Arezzo, giving you all useful information along the way.

 

It will be a unique experience, which takes into account environmental sustainability and your wellbeing, since we will give you the opportunity to do this nice nature hiking tour without using your car.
