The beauty of Umbria is seductive and at times seems quite perfect.

 

The secret lies in the splendid balance between man and nature, in the bond that Umbrians have always had with their land and their rich past.

 

Held tightly between its walls, Assisi is a magical place, and the fact that little has changed since the Middle Ages has kept its enchantment intact.

 

Set into the green surroundings Castelvecchio is a small village on the western border of the Monti Sibillini National Park, perfect for spending a week of relaxation and nature.

 

Five days of professionally guided walks will allow you to discover the beauty and treasures of a territory rich in wild nature and ancient traditions, between the regions of Umbria and Marche.

Born in 1968, I have been an Environmental Hiking Guide since 1998 and, although I like to wander around accompanying groups in different areas of Italy and Europe, the Marches remain the center of my hiking activities.

Where I live

I live in Macerata, a quiet hill town, whose location I love, close to the sea and to “my” Sibillini, together with my wife.
