Italy

10th - 17th September 2011

MS Trekkers return to the Italian Lake District to take in the many highlights of Lake Como and the great lakes of northern Italy. The challenge features a selection of day walks along the Monti Lariani (Lario being the ancient name of Lake Como) exploring the forested valleys, mountain tops and traditional villages, which have retained their unique character established back in Roman times. We will be following ancient trails, many still in use by locals, to reach the Alpine pastures where sensational views of Lake Como and surrounding regions reward those who accept this fine walking challenge. We return each night to comfortable accommodation with mounting satisfaction of our walking challenge

Lorraine Ho, Founder of Bootcamp Ireland and ambassador for MS Walks said: “It’s so easy to come up with excuses for not exercising, but more often than not, when you are out in the fresh air and walking, you feel so much better for it. These MS walks are a fantastic way to for people to get moving, meet new people and perhaps take on 'walking' or 'hiking' as a new activity! It appeals to most as it's for all fitness levels and ages, and the general benefits of exercise, such as; healthy lifestyle, better sleep, improved concentration & self esteem, reduced stress levels and overall better well being, will give way to a new and improved you. Not only do these walks take in some of the most beautiful scenery and landscape around the world but you are also walking for a great charity. Read more
