We met our guides Claudio and Beata and headed by car about 20mins drive up the mountain road where we saw beautiful views and the wild cows that thrive in the area. We stopped at a look out point and discussed the area a little bit and got used to the height then travelled 2 mins back down the road to the trail. What began as a gentle climb for about 10 mins and then became more stair like as we accessed the rocky part of the mountain for the next 30 mins before reaching the plateau and then the peak. We stopped frequently and our guides showed us the natural plants and explained their uses. At the top we took lots of photos and enjoyed a lovely prepared meal of local cheeses, meats and jams. We stayed up through the sunset and then climbed back down reaching the car as it finally got dark.
We are from a very flat and hot area so we don’t get to hike up mountains ever and no experience. We are active but not fit and we found the climb very easy and manageable
We were so excited to have accomplished something new and the views were amazing, hiking with Claudio and Beata felt like going for a walk with friends - we cannot recommend enough. If you are nervous or unsure they will make sure to take care of your needs you have a great time.
