An Easter of rest, greenery, walking, nature and environmental sustainability .
A breath before the final rush that will take us to the summer months, yes, Easter is also this.
Beautiful days permitting, here are some proposals to celebrate outdoors, in a group, with your family, as a couple or even alone. The password is only one: relax!
Easter walking
From 3 to 6 April, the holiday is marked by the motto "Life is a journey to be made on foot", a holiday that the touring company "Le via dei canti" proposes for its Easter tour that touches the paths dear to Bruce Chatwin : meadows, woods, mountains of the Tuscan Apennine National Park, in the heart of Garfagnana, to cross and walk accompanied by an expert guide, as well as a great walker.
Four days to lighten up and do good to the Planet, re-evaluating the social importance of travel and food, people and the materials that go with it. To move, relax, learn .
Easter among the forgotten railways
Last month a day was dedicated to the forgotten railways of Italy; why not think about dedicating a couple of days to discovering these magical places?
The old railroads tell us about us and open up new hopes for sustainable tourism, they are precious legacies not to be abandoned on the back burner, but to be lived, continuing to enjoy those routes.
Legs on the shoulder, riding a bike or on foot, here are some ideas of a forgotten railway to travel with, and then end with a cheerful Easter or Easter Monday picnic: stretch of Porto Empedocle in Sicily, Merano-Malles stretch in Trentino Alto Adige, Spoleto-Norcia stretch, one of the most resistant greenways in the country, just to mention some of the 10 thousand kilometers of soft mobility routes that Italy has, which can be viewed on the Forgotten Railways website.
