Nordic Walking – full day

Come and try Nordic walking with us (a fast walk with poles) on the paths of the Island of Elba.

This simple fun sport is suitable for all age groups and allows you to unite the positive effects of sport (firming shoulder, chest, thigh, bottom, tummy and back muscles) with relaxation and fun.  The pristine paths, the silence and the colours of the Island of Elba are ideal for Nordic walking.

We leave from the town of Marina di Campo, after a few metres along a path on the plain, we take another one that climbs directly up to San Piero.  Here we take a diversion to Piazza di Facciatoia (Square) to see the beautiful view of Marina di Campo.  Leaving the village of San Piero we continue our ascent on granite, among rock roses, strawberry trees and higher up among majestic chestnut trees.  On arriving in the Castagnole area we find a spring where we stop to quench our thirst.  From here we take a track to Masso alla Quata (745 m asl), the route, then, becomes easy with a slight descent as far as Monte Maolo.  From this point our descent to Marina di Campo begins.  At first the track is steep and leads to Monte Perone where under the shade of pine trees we take a break.  The descent to Marina di Campo is very pleasant, the path surface is good and the view is fantastic.  On arriving at Sant’Ilario we continue on tarmac for a short stretch and then take a path that leads to Marina di Campo where our excursion ends.
