WHY THIS HIKE
The Castelloni di San Marco
A guided excursion to try the taste of getting lost in beauty, in a unique and fascinating place. The Castles of San Marco are an extraordinary karst rock formation, a true natural labyrinth made of gulls, ridges and crevices, where every step is a discovery.

The experience
We will walk through walls shaped by time, in an environment that seems to come out of a fantastic tale. Here nature has enjoyed carving the rock, creating narrow passages, panoramic terraces and plays of light between the cracks.
An immersive and unusual experience, perfect for those who want to explore, let themselves be surprised and finally find a new sense of wonder in their eyes.
