Summer is (almost) over? Not for you! 🌞 While most are swapping sunscreen for pumpkin soup, we recommend enjoying pleasant warm temperatures in many southern regions. Fewer tourists and stunning landscapes are just a few of the benefits of extending your summer.
In this blog, you’ll discover which hiking destinations allow you to stretch out your summer season. Eurohike offers a wide range of hiking tours, including:
The good news: Summer isn’t just a season—it’s a feeling. And with a few simple tricks, you can easily bring that feeling back. For a few days, you can even capture a bit of that summer vibe right here at home—at least as much as possible:
Soak up the sunshine — late-summer light is true soul food. Hiking brings you straight to where the sun still shines.
Make time for yourself — spending time outdoors helps you unwind, clear your mind, and recharge before autumn settles in.
And when the days grow cooler and the crisp air rolls in, simply escape to warmer regions — and keep the feeling of summer going with a sunny hiking getaway.
Hiking in Bella Italia — it’s more than just a romantic idea; it’s one of the most rewarding ways to experience Italy beyond the usual tourist crowds. From sun-soaked coastal paths to olive groves and quiet medieval villages, the landscapes are as diverse as they are breathtaking. Already in love with Italy — or ready to be? Discover the hiking tours where a swimsuit belongs in your daypack and find out why pizza somehow tastes even better after a day on the trail.
