Trekking with donkeys in Aspromonte through woods and bivouacking
Walk as of old, accompanied by donkeys along the paths of Aspromonte
Forget the rush and let yourself be guided by the rhythm of the mountain. This experience leads you to the discovery of Aspromonte through an ancient way of traveling: trekking with pack donkeys, faithful companions along the way that will transport food and equipment along the route.
Accompanied by expert guides you will cross woods, mule tracks and ancient paths trodden for centuries by shepherds and pilgrims. During the walk you will discover the history of the territory, the flora, the fauna and the traditions of Aspromonte, alternating moments of trekking with panoramic stops and breaks along streams or natural areas.
The daily experience includes a breakfast before departure and a lunch immersed in nature with typical products. For those who wish to live an even more intense adventure, the two-day version is also available with an overnight stay in a tent and an evening around the campfire.
It is the ideal experience for those looking for an authentic contact with the mountain, far from the most beaten tourist tracks.

Slow travel at its best
This was exactly the kind of experience we were looking for. Walking through the Aspromonte with donkeys, listening to Gianluca's stories and enjoying local food in the middle of nature was unforgettable. Peaceful, authentic and beautifully organized.

Trails, woods, silence, and incredible views. Gianluca manages to talk about the territory with great passion and makes every stop interesting. It is a day that reconciles you with nature and its rhythms.

A return to simplicity
One of the most beautiful experiences had in Calabria. The donkeys are incredibly sweet and become part of the group throughout the day. Lunch with typical products immersed in the woods was the perfect moment to relax and share stories.
