Sentiero Italia CAI Basilicata

Suspended between the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas, Basilicata reveals itself as a geological labyrinth of rare beauty, carved by millennia of tectonic dynamics and silent erosion. Hiking the Sentiero Italia CAI in this region is a journey through a rugged territory where nature retains its wild character and villages cling tenaciously to the rock face.

From the stone spires of the Lucanian Dolomites to the meditative silence of the Maddalena Mountains, the path traverses the backbone of a hidden Italy. The journey reaches its climax in Pollino National Park, where amid ancient beech forests and sheer gorges stands the Bosnian Pine (Pino Loricato), a living monument to resilience. An itinerary for those seeking the luxury of solitude and the challenge of an ever-changing horizon.
