Trip details
Day 1: Switzerland – Portoferraio
You travel by Comfort coach to Piombino and then cross by ferry to Portoferraio. You arrive at your hotel late in the evening and enjoy dinner in the hotel restaurant.
Day 2: Capo di Calamita & visit to Capoliveri
Today takes you through pine forest around the "magnet mountain" Monte Calamita. On the walk of about three hours, you will enjoy fascinating views over the Bay of Porto Azzurro. In the afternoon you visit the picturesque mountain village of Capoliveri, which sits high above the sea and rewards you with magnificent panoramas.
Day 3: Monte Capanne
Today you walk through charming mountain villages to Elba's highest peak, Monte Capanne. The magnificent view over Tuscany and the Mediterranean is a fitting reward for this somewhat more demanding stage.
Day 4: Napoleon's Path
Today you follow a path that Napoleon had built to reach his summer residence. From Monte Tambone you walk through green maquis and reach San Martino. In the afternoon you explore Portoferraio, the island's main town.
Day 5: Five-bay walk Viticcio - Procchio
Today you travel by coach to the fishing village of Viticcio. From here you walk through oak woods to the sandy beach of Procchio. The 600-metre-long, fine-sand beach nestles like an amphitheatre in the lush coastal landscape. Time for a stroll along the beach or a dip in the sea.
Day 6: Portoferraio - Switzerland
After unforgettable days of walking, you depart for the return journey to Switzerland.
The 4* Hotel Fabricia (official national rating) stands out for its location near Portoferraio, completely surrounded by Mediterranean flora, olive trees and the scent of the sea.
