From Triponzo: Valnerina Tunnel and Mountain Hiking Tour – Umbria, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

– Max distance: 11 km
– Max vertical descent: 450 m

In the frenetic world we live in, where we always look ahhead to the future, once you come to Valnerina will feel like a jump back in time. Here, you will be able to discover how the mountains were crossed in the past and how a simple water course eroded the earth forming a deep gorge, known even in pre-Roman times.

Among the tunnels dug into the rock, in absolute darkness, we will talk about a technological jewel of the ‘900, a flagship of central Italy that in the ’70s was dismantled. Between friends and chit chats, we will analyze the rocks surrounding us and finally we will go up in altitude to see the Valnerina from above and, if we are lucky, we will also witness an excellent sunset.
