This trekking track is interesting both from the point of view of its landscape and its history. The 1.5 hours walk starts from the town of Torca; in the first 30 minutes, the path proceeds among beautiful and aromatic plants of the Mediterranean shrub, up to the point where the shrub leaves space to the almost 700 steps, from which is possible to be captured by the beauty of the landscape, with the view over Praiano, Li Galli, Vetara and Isca islands, and finally over the Montalto headland. In the final part of the path it’s possible to admire the small Saint Peter’s Church. Once on the beach, after a drop of 370m, it’s possible to rest, enjoy the freshness of the water, discover the ruins of roman settlements.

 

On the beach it's possible to join a snorkeling tour lasting 30 min to discover the marine life and the caves of the Fijord
