Hiking and Mountain Biking.

The paths of nature
lead to its wonders.
To get rid of the anxiety and stress of everyday life there is nothing better than an outdoor walk. The territory of Sarnano stretches between the natural wonders of the Sibillini Mountains and a lush countryside, in which the balance between man and environment is still respected and preserved. You do not need to be a hiking lover to enjoy the beauties this place has to offer. Even a simple walk, in fact, can lead you to discover small breathtaking shows, hidden in the meandering of a silent nature and in perfect harmony with its inhabitants.

Thanks to the work of theSarnano Association inBicycles, in collaboration with the municipal administration, today there are as many as 10 marked routes and easily accessible by foot, bike or horseback,classified according to the length of the route and the difference in altitude to be faced.

Mountain biking on the Sibillini Mountains:
cycling through forests and meadows.
The mountains around Sarnano are ideal for mountain biking and enduro. The many paths through woods, meadows and ridges are perfect both for those who simply love to cycle in a green landscape, breathing in the scent of the mountain, and for those who practice all-mountain and are in search of the thrill of the slopes. In addition to the 10 routes we talked about above, three specific routes for the enduro of different difficulties and lengths extend near Sarnano, for a total of 30 km of marked routes.

The Sibillini Park Enduro Association also offers a bike shuttle service for those who want to practice enduro and all mountain, and for those who simply want to ride in the mountains to reach the paths by shuttle (reservation required).

With the Sarnano Association in Bikes, on the other hand, it is also possible to book mountain bike tours for children and adults, accompanied by specialized guides, in possession of the certificate of the National Academy of Mountain Bike and with a deep knowledge of the territory.

Also, if cycling is not really your forte, but you want to discover this territory on two wheels do not give up this desire: rather enjoy ahike with e-bikes,electric bikes. Just book a few days in advance.

Hiking in the Sibillini.
An experience within everyone’s reach.
Sarnano is located right at the foot of the Sibillini Mountains, which is the ideal starting point for those who love hiking.
For example, the hermitage of Soffiano falls within the municipal territory, and is reachable by a short hike also suitable for children.
Starting from the ski district of Santa Maria Maddalena, you can get to the top of Mount Pizzo Meta, from which you can enjoy an incredible view that stretches from the mountains to the sea.
Travelling a few kilometres by car, you can reach the hiking trails to the most famous sites of the Sibillini: the Lame Rosse and the Grotta dei Frati in the direction of Fiastra and Mount Sibilla, and Lake Pilato and Monte Vettore in the direction of Montemonaco (the paths leading to the Fiastrone Gorges in the Cessapalombo area and the Gorges of Hell near Montefortino are temporarily unfeasible).
In short, prepare your hiking boots and stick because the Sibillini are full of enchanted places to discover step by step. On the website of the local section of the Cai (Alpine Center Italino) you can find the list of itineraries and the calendar of organized excursions.
