Exercise yourself
It was a hot day in May. And we joined a group of experienced Italian trekkers, friends of ours, on a hiking walk to Monte Carmo.
Monte Carmo is a fantastic summit of the Ligurian Apennine with altitude of 1642 meters. You can find more info about its hiking treks here. My partner and I, I have to admit, felt so exhausted in the middle of the way up that we decided to make this wonderful shelter our final destination for the day:
There was a barbecue that day and therefore, so many people gathered on the green grass. Sausages and salad, pasta of course, delicious cakes, wine and beer: it was a little piece of paradise indeed! Not to mention two ginger cats resting on the window of the cottage and ready to snuggle...
The view from that place was unspeakable too as your sight can catch both mountain and sea.
Besides, there was a small basin full of tadpoles! It was first time in my life when I saw tadpoles. Obviously, May was a mating season for frogs.
After spending an hour or so in this splendid place, our guides led us through another route on the way back and we found lots of herbs like mint and dill. We passed by climbers so if you are fond of vertical rock climbing, you will definitely find a suitable place on the way to Monte Carmo. We also found lots of mushrooms and even very big ones. However, I am not an expert in this field.
Our journey started and ended at Loano - a nice seaside resort town in the Italian Riviera. Hopefully, next time we will be able to climb the peak and come back with many more and picturesque photos.
