Description of the Excursion
If you're looking for the perfect destination for a day outdoors with your children, Monte Faito is the ideal choice! Nestled in the heart of the Sorrento Coast, this natural paradise offers safe trails suitable for all ages, surrounded by lush vegetation and breathtaking views of the Gulf of Naples and Salerno.

- Nature to Explore: Forests, plants, and animals to discover in a peaceful environment, far from the noise of the city.
Recommended Routes:

Ideal for introducing children to the magic of nature. Along the way, you'll encounter Monte Faito's ancient snow pits, once used to store snow. In autumn, these pits were insulated with beech leaves to preserve ice until summer, when it was transported to the valley for sale.
