What
you need to take part in an excursion. Useful suggestions:
- you should adapt your equipment and clothing to the
climate of your destination: if you go on an island
you shouldn’t forget bathing costume and summer
cream, if you go to the mountains, gloves, woollen hat
and some sweaters;
- you should always dress like a “onion”,
that is with different layers, so that if it’s
too hot you can undress, while if it’s cold you
can put on something else. Put always in your rucksack
a windcheater, in summer too, it could rain or be cold,
especially in altitude;
- don’t underestimate the comfortableness of the
trekking shoes, in summer too, but learn to treat well
your feet letting them breathe before, during and after
the hike;
- take only the water you need and something to eat,
we’ll find the rest along the road; remember that
the goodness of the excursionist can be seen also in
the thrift of his rucksack: take only the essential,
what doesn’t fit into the bag is not necessary;
- remember to take any medicines you need, where we
go usually there are not pharmacies. Inform your guide
of any need you have before leaving;
- adventurous spirit and adaptability are the consequences
of your curiosity, and are fundamental to look deeply
around you: be a little introspective;
Tours by bike:
If you have your own bike you can use it; it’s
important that it fits with your size, being not too
big nor too small.
Tours where extra costs can be expected:
- Ecological train
- Ecological train + bike
- Taxi service in Garfagnana
- Snowshoe renting
- Renting of a “barchino” (marshes boat)
- Canoe renting
- Tour on sailing boat (cooking supplies, room in the
harbour, overnight stay in land; other possible extras)
