Trekking paths in Elba and useful suggestions on how to follow them

Some of the itineraries proposed are also suitable for those who are beginners in hiking. However, due to the nature of the trails and the situations the hiker will encounter, appropriate equipment and clothing are recommended.

Anyone who decides to explore the island’s trails is also expressing a desire to reconnect with nature. Hiking is an excellent remedy against some of the ailments of modern life, but it is essential that this opportunity remains available for future generations: the actions of some are slowly destroying the natural environment.

We would like to offer a few suggestions

• Admire the flowers and wild plants, but do not pick them;
• Do not light fires for any reason;
• There are no shelters or bivouacs on Elba, and wild camping is formally prohibited throughout the island; stay only in equipped campsites;
• Dispose of waste in designated containers; if none are available, collect it and take it with you;
• Only use the marked trails;
• Do not damage trees and shrubs;
• Do not disturb animals or approach their young;
• Do not disturb the peace of the forest. The silence and peace of nature belong to everyone;
• Observe the instructions, regulations, and municipal ordinances;
• Park cars and motorcycles only in designated areas and remember that it is forbidden to access trails and forest tracks with motorized vehicles;

Due to the rich landscape and archaeological heritage, as well as the numerous natural features of Elba, countless combinations of stays are possible, offering the chance to appreciate the extraordinary beauty of the island.

Throughout the year, stays and excursions with naturalistic, archaeological, and educational themes are organized.
