The magic of autumn colours amongst beech woods, mills and villages – Foliage Tour

From the medieval village of Monteacuto delle Alpi, we’ll descend towards the Baricello valley, cloaked in a splendid, colourful beech forest. Once we reach the Mulino della Squaglia, we’ll head back up towards the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Faggio along the Baricello stream, where, with a bit of luck, we might catch a glimpse of the spotted salamander.
 

Still surrounded by the beech forest, we’ll then reach the picturesque stone village of Tresana, before heading back down to the Mulino della Squaglia and climbing back up towards Monteacuto delle Alpi.

At the end of the hike, those who wish to do so can stop off at the Rifugio Segavecchia for a ‘mountain lunch’ with an à la carte menu and a complimentary glass of wine (travel by own car, approximately 7 km away).

The cost is not included in the price of the experience; payment must therefore be made directly and individually.
