A Breath of Fresh Air
Getting out into nature is a great way to improve both your mental and physical well-being. Fortunately, Italy is full of many spectacular hiking trails - some of the most noticeable beauties can be found in Amalfi, the Dolomites, and Sicily. Be sure to take your camera because your hike could provide some breathtaking views of tranquil lakes, awe-inspiring volcanos, serene seascapes, and lush forests.

If you’re not much of a hiker, renting a bike is another fun way to explore the area and get your fitness fix at the same time. Tuscany, Piemonte, and Verona are all lovely areas to ride around, or any charming little village you might find yourself in throughout Italy. You can even add a little romance to your outdoor experience by saddling up for a romantic horseback ride through the vineyards of Tuscany.
