Italy Trekking Tours 2020/2021

“Our trip in late September was ideal. Very few other tourists or walkers, very friendly staff and perfect temperature for walking. The remote region of the Apuan was challenging and very rewarding hiking holiday. Superb country and hospitable locals. Highly recommended.”

“We completed the Hiking the Apuane Alps in late September of 2019. We were pleasantly surprised with the accommodations and thoroughly enjoyed our days hiking despite some challenges with the rain on a few days. The views are amazing and the woods enchanting. We hope to do another Sherpa trip in the future.”

“This was an excellent trip, made all the better by the unseasonably hot September weather! Our local guide Hannes put together an interesting and varied itinerary perfectly suited to our group, which was both enjoyable and challenging, allowing us to experience different styles of via ferrata while developing our own abilities. He was always careful to ensure that each participant was comfortable with the activities, and was very encouraging when sharing his own expertise and experience. I had some previous hiking experience, including on protected routes in the Dolomites, but had never attempted a via ferrata before; I did not feel that this held me back, although I would certainly endorse the statement that "you need to be sure footed and have a head for heights"! The hotel was easily accessed by train, and was comfortable with really good food. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my holiday.”
