Please check local regulations for: Parco Nazionale dell'Aspromonte
Location: Canolo, Reggio Calabria, Calabria, Italy
The stretch that from Passo della Limina leads to Canolo is among the most beautiful of the cycle path from a landscape point of view. You go up quite a bit crossing woods and reserves of beech and conifers in pleasant solitude, until you reach the plateau which leads to the crossroads for Canolo Nuova. But once you have arrived here, in Aspromonte, you absolutely must not miss arriving near the historic center of "old" Canolo, dominated by immense rocky towers in the middle of two deep canyons: a beguiling place that greatly influenced the English painter and writer Edward Lear .
