What will you do

A circular hike in Africo Vecchio, a ghost village in Aspromonte, among stone-paved paths, ruins, and woods that envelop a landscape suspended in time. An itinerary that weaves together memory, nature, and sweeping views over the Aspromonte valleys.

Start experience

Departure from the Park Gate and entrance to the historic trail leading to the village. The first stretch crosses ancient cobblestones, old mills, and the town’s first abandoned buildings.

Key moment

Crossing the heart of Africo Vecchio with a visit to the main buildings: former barracks, elementary school and the church of San Nicola. The route continues through oak and chestnut woods to the small church of San Leo, with wide views over the La Verde torrent and the surrounding hills.

Return

Descent along a mule track carved into the rock with views of Montalto and Puntone della Guardia. Completion of the loop and return to the starting point along a scenic, gradual route.

  • Hiking shoes
