Along a secular path, once crossway of cristian pilgrims and traders, we'll walk part of an itinerary that used to link Lunigiana valley to Lucca through Garfagnana, also known as Volto Santo itinerary. 

From the village of Pieve S.Lorenzo through Ugliancaldo and Equi Terme we'll reach Monzone. All these villages have preserved the atmosphere and the prospective of the medioeval travellers. Our trekking offers, besides, great views on the highest peak of Apuan Alps range: mount  Pisanino
