Overview

Ppss, do you want to discover a well kept secret?

Join me and I'll open you the doors of Turano Valley one of the hidden gem of our region, where you can make a jump into the past, among small villages, lush nature, green mountains for a great hike within old trees, waterfalls to admire, huge castles to discover, blue lakes where you can swim/kayak/sailing, and more.

I'll take on kayak on the lake (in summer) and hike our tracks until the peaks (not difficult -;) inside the Park, of which I'm an official Guide, telling lots of info about flora, fauna, history and legends of this unchanged Italy.
I'll show you fantastic spots for your pictures and we'll meet together the locals.

I'll host you for the night in one of the "Top 100's Italian villages", in an old stone house fully renovated, with fireplace and a big terrace overlooking the sunset, with an amazing lake view.

So, take a break from the hustle and bustle and it will be one of the best memories you'll bring back with you
