Walking and hiking

Paths

An extensive network of hiking trails suitable for all, among the southern Euganean Hills

Arquà Petrarca offers a wide network of hiking trails suitable for everyone, from hiking enthusiasts to lovers of relaxing walks. Here, the official paths of the Euganean Hills Regional Park intertwine with ancient local trails, such as those collected by Antonio Mazzetti in the Sentieri di Arquà Petrarca guidebook, some of which we propose readjustments for an even more immersive experience.

Walking is undoubtedly the best way to discover the extraordinary variety of landscape surrounding the village. You will admire unique natural environments, from Mediterranean scrub to vegri, a refuge for rare species of wild orchids. In May, the landscape lights up with the intense yellow of the ginestre, while in autumn the hillsides are tinged with the red and orange hues of the scotani, providing views of rare beauty.
