Discovering the Garden of the Gods and the Loricate Pines in the Pollino Park
Sport
Natura
A not-to-be-missed excursion in the Pollino Park, among the majestic Loricate Pines, real living fossils at an altitude of more than 2,000 metres, and the centuries-old woods leading to the suggestive Garden of the Gods, near Serra di Crispo.
Accompanied by an expert guide, you will discover the stories of Zi Peppe and the brigands who once crossed these paths. In a unique natural environment of imposing beech trees, springs and breathtaking views, you can become a Natural Tracker and, with a bit of luck, spot roe deer, squirrels or other inhabitants of the forest.
