The mountains and sea of Elba: 2 days of hiking on the spectacular paths of Mount Capanne, 1 day of mountain biking discovering the most enchanting routes of the Island and 2 days in a kayak circumnavigating the highest mountain of the Tuscan Archipelago. This week long sporting holiday is a unique chance to totally and actively get to know Elba’s natural surroundings and history.
Walking along Elban footpaths accompanied by expert and qualified local guides you can admire pristine natural surroundings that are rich in life, discover Elba’s unique geology, enjoy breathtaking views of Elba, the Tuscan coast, Corsica and all the islands of the Tuscan Archipelago. You can visit various natural environments (cliffs, dunes, scrubland, Mediterranean vegetation, woodland, rocky peaks), getting to know a large quantity of plants and observing wild animals such as wild bore, mouflons (a type of wild sheep), deer. In the second part of the programme we will discover Elba on a mountain bike pedalling under the chestnut trees of Marciana or around the iron mines of Capoliveri. And to finish 2 days of Kayak excursions paddling around the western coast of the Island of Elba entering hidden gorges thanks to the manoeuvrability and low draught of sea kayaks and this silent means of transport allows us to get near to seagulls, cormorants and other sea birds.
