HIKING TRAILS

WARNINGS
After the earthquake of 2016... read... some hiking trails suffered damage due to landslides and geological problems that completely or partially prevent their use. To allow a more immediate reading of the status of the hiking trails and the relative usability, the following graphic is used::
The green symbol indicates the usable paths, he yellow symbol indicates the paths with usable sections and closed sections, The red symbol indicates the closed paths.

Livestock farming, which has always been practised in the Sibyllines, has, over the centuries, created a dense network of paths leading from the inhabited centres to the highest peaks where the main pastures opened up, used by the migratory herds for summer grazing. The old tracks can be used to make a huge number of walking routes. Here, we suggest 17 of the best routes for exploring the different scenery and nature that the Park has to offer. The starting and finishing points of each route are indicated, as well as technical data, descriptions, and the relevant numbering. The durations are calculated allowing for stops so “you can catch your breath” and take in the amazing countryside and small treasures of the Sibyllines Mountains. Please note that, if you are walking without an expert guide, you must have plenty of trekking experience since the paths are not yet fully signed. It is advisable, in any case, to obtain local information on the conditions of the paths that you intend to follow. Particular attention must be paid to the period in which you intend to go on walking, especially during the winter months and in early spring. Some paths lead to the highest peaks of the Sibylline Mountains, which are often covered with heavy snow, or pass through ravines and valleys that could be at risk of avalanches.
