During this tour, which pays homage to the beauty of the Abruzzo landscapes, you will take part in a donkey trekking activity, a “slow tourism” experience where times are only those of nature.
The activity consists in walking with pack animals on the Gran Sasso, on a total of about 12 km long path that goes from Santo Stefano di Sessanio to Rocca Calascio.
A walk through fields, mule tracks, alleys, arches and squares.
On the go you can:

this medieval castle ruin is located at an altitude of 1,460 meters and is known as location for the films “Ladyhawke” and “The Name of the Rose”

a picturesque, award-winning place at 1251 meters

The excursion with a height difference of max. 250 meters is not difficult and is also suitable for children from 3 years.
All participants will be able not only to lead the donkeys but also to get to know them better and enter into a relationship with them.
In addition to keeping company, donkeys can help carry backpacks and children to make the walk easier and more enjoyable.
