Infos

This handy guidebook contains route descriptions for the 400km Grande Escursione Appenninica. The trek is split over 23 days and covers a variety of terrain, from lush forestry to panoramic ridges. The route is suitable for a broad range of walkers and peaks at 2000m above sea level. It can be split into shorter sections or day walks if needed.

---

Nearly 400km in length, and ranging between 400m and 2000m above sea level, the exhilarating Great Apennines Trek (GEA) spends just over three weeks criss-crossing the central-north section of the range, following routes established by long-gone invaders and traders, and trodden by pilgrims and shepherds since time immemorial. Dipping in and out of Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna, the trek makes its way northwest up Italy traversing two national parks dotted with pretty lakes.
