You can also walk past it on the left for those who are not afraid of heights

A pompous structure in the middle of nature.

Legend has it that whoever manages to go around it 3 times without breathing will be able to find the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Always gentle slopes and at high altitude, among beech and fir forests. A monotony that never tires.

Here, in the lands of Aspromonte, you can immerse yourself in unspoiled and wild nature, which stands out among the most fascinating and precious in Italy. The Aspromonte National Park, with its vast mountainous territories, dense forests, impetuous torrents and majestic peaks, offers a unique and spectacular environment. Exploring this paradise, you will be able to admire an extraordinary variety of flora and fauna, let yourself be enveloped by the tranquility of the centuries-old woods and face exciting excursions to discover breathtaking panoramas. Aspromonte is an unmissable destination for nature lovers and adventurers looking for authentic and unforgettable experiences.

Green and coniferous forests, crossed by roads with little traffic. Possible off-road detours, services not always available within the park

In this stretch of the Aspromonte Park there are places and monuments linked to the history of Garibaldi and the Landing of the Thousand. About 7 km from Gambarie, in the thick vegetation are the Mausoleum and the Cippo di Garibaldi; it is here that the General was laid down by his soldiers after being wounded in a fire fight in Aspromonte.

This stretch of the Calabria Parks Cycle Route goes from the Mercante pass to the Zomaro, from the Zilastro plains to Zervò. Crossing Aspromonte towards Gambarie and it's really exciting. Nature is anything but harsh: you travel for kilometers surrounded by giant ferns at over a thousand meters above sea level among beech trees, centuries-old fir trees and sudden green prairies. It is in this stretch, near Villagio Trepitò, that you can admire the Mundu and Galasìa waterfalls, a spectacle of nature that has no equal. The descent that leads to the waterfalls must be done on foot, but it is an experience you will never forget. In this area there are also two precious refuges for those who practice cycle tourism, namely "Il Boschetto fioreto" and "Il biancospino". They offer fantastic hospitality, as does the former Zervò sanatorium, transformed into a community open to those who pass by.
