Episode 6: The Way of the Gods

The Via degli Dei, or "Way of the Gods," is a 130-kilometer hiking trail that spans from Bologna to Florence in Italy. This ancient route takes hikers through the stunning landscapes of the Apennine Mountains, passing through quaint villages and historic sites along the way.

The trail starts in Bologna and winds through the hills of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. Along the way, hikers pass through charming towns such as Madonna dei Fornelli, San Piero a Sieve, and Fiesole, each with their own unique history and culture.

One of the highlights of the Via degli Dei is the climb up Mount Adone, the highest point on the trail at 1,276 meters above sea level. From the summit, hikers are rewarded with sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
