For our second event of the new cycle of forest and nature immersions, at La Spezia and surroundings, we will move to Tellaro

Program

Portesone is an evocative place: an abandoned hamlet among terraces of old olive groves. With the overviews over the gulf of La Spezia. The old olive groves are partly being reshaped, and partly still abandoned and not accessible, but, in part, also usable for our nature immersion activities. An environment ion balance through re-naturalisation, but still maintaining the familiar aspect of the terraces and old cultivations. As usually, with the facilitation of the guide, everybody will be free to follow his own way to nature connection, and free to share or not his experience with the others.

After the usual short introduction we will ascend, from the park site, our meeting point, towards Portesone, where we will start our activities; we will slowly move along the lanes and among the terraces with olive trees, to develop our connection and sharing practices, in relation to the conditions of the moment.  Duration: 2-2.5 hours.

Meeting point. Sunday, January 15th, 2022, 10.00 a.m. At the park site close to the cemetery of Tellaro.

What to bring. Practical and informal clothes, adequate to temperature and weather conditions. The activity will be rather static, so stay warm. Small backpack or bag, with your personal belongings; avoid bulky things, that may be an obstacle. You can bring a small mat or pillow to sit on the ground, but not bug mats, that can be uncomfortable to hold.

The itinerary may include short rather steep uphill and downhill stretches. We may enter in areas with invasive vegetation, so a contact with plants could be possible, as encountering parts with rough terrain, fallen branches and stinging plants.
