What we will do
The meeting with the guide will take place at 9.30 a.m. in the historic Piazza delle Piramidi in Abetone (PT). After a briefing on the activity, we will put on our snowshoes and set off on this exciting adventure in the snow.
The guide will accompany us along the most evocative paths in the area. We will walk quietly through the frozen beech forests, enveloped in thewinter atmosphere and fascinated by the special play of light created by the sun's rays reflecting off the snow. About halfway along, we will stop for a picnic meal and to recharge our batteries.
The route is about 9 km long, has a slight difference in altitude but is free of technical difficulties and is suitable for anyone who enjoys walking in the mountains. The activity lasts a total of about 5.5 hours, including several scenic stops along the way, and ends with the return to the starting point.
