Description
<p>Non solo vino! Italy's classic artistic and cultural landscape offers many highlights not only for wine connoisseurs, but also for walkers and mountaineers. High and low mountain ranges as well as numerous nature reserves characterize the country's "greenest" region.</p> <p>Around Florence, you can walk through a magnificent garden landscape and over cypress-covered hills - from the Giardino di Boboli in the south of the Medici metropolis to the Roman ruins in high-altitude Fiesole, from the birthplace of the brilliant Leonardo to the flower paradise of the Monti della Calvana. In Casentino and Mugello, forests and gorges invite you to explore. Between the monastery of La Verna and the national park at the sources of the Arno, you can follow in the footsteps of Dante and St. Francis. Versilia is one of the most spectacular landscapes in Italy: the difference in altitude between the wide sandy beaches around Viareggio, the world-famous marble quarries around Carrara and the peaks of the Apuan Alps is almost 2000 meters. In Garfagnana and Lunigiana, the rugged limestone peaks of the Apuane contrast with the long sandstone ridges of the Apennines. Ancient villages, caves and hundreds of lakes make the hinterland of Lucca and La Spézia a touring paradise û crisp via ferratas included. Here and there, this Rother hiking guide reveals both attractive and quiet routes.</p> <p>For the fourth edition, the hiking guide has been completely updated and one route has been replaced. Clear brief information with all the important details, colored hiking maps, elevation profiles and detailed route descriptions for each route make it easier to select and find your way around. </p> <p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wolfgang Heitzmann, Renate Gabriel | Bergverlag Rother | 5th edition 2016 | 160 pages | 117 color and 1 black and white illustrations, 50 elevation profiles, 50 hiking maps at a scale of 1:50,000 and 1:75,000 as well as two overview maps at a scale of 1:700,000 and 1:2,000,000 | format 11.5 x 16.5 cm | paperback with Polytex lamination | German</span></p>
