VENETIAN HILLS WALK (FURTHER DETAILS)

General information:
Independent 8 nights walking hotel to hotel. 2 Boot Level.

This walk is of easy/medium difficulty. It mainly follows forest paths and country lanes with just a few very brief steep sections. Untouched country side, rolling hills and wild flowers including poppies, heather and wild orchids. There are plenty of wine tasting opportunites.

Location:
This holiday is based in the wonderfully unspoilt Euganean and Berici Hills, the lesser-known treasures of the Veneto.

Your walking is mainly on footpaths, tracks and country lanes which link the network of villages and small towns which have grown up around the volcanic hills. The area is rich in minerals and is dotted with terraces of vineyards, almond and cherry trees. There is very little traffic on the roads and tracks and very few walkers on the footpaths.

The area has long been a draw for Venetians anxious to escape their muggy heat, and you will see many of their sumptuous villas, and the panoramas of the hills are never far away. The area is ideally situated for visiting Vicenza, Padua and Venice.

Who would this holiday appeal to?
Mainly to couples who like peace and quiet. Great base afterwards for Venice and Verona. Not ideal for children, as not enough for them to do.
