Following clearly marked paths that have been used for centuries, the Hidden Italy Self-Guided Walks have been designed to give the independent walker the chance to discover a side of Italy that other people only read about. No shuttles or buses, these itineraries are continuous walks, taking you from A to B, along ancient paths that lead you through some of the most spectacular countryside in Europe. All you have to do is get up in the morning, pull on your boots, have breakfast and enjoy the walk - we'll look after the rest.
