Autumn, between the firs

Gold in the valleys, bracken under the firs, and the first fires of the year.

01 Autumn in the forest

The firs stay green. Everything around them turns.

Menalo is mostly fir, so the mountain itself keeps its colour. The change happens in the valleys and along the water: plane and oak turn yellow and red, bracken goes copper between the trunks, and the paths fill with leaves.

It is a good time for walking. The forest is quiet, the light is low, and in the evening there is a fire in the lounge.

02 On foot

Choose a section.

The Menalon Trail passes through Vitina and Elati, and its sections can be walked one at a time. The walk from Vitina to Elati and the riverside path are the easiest places to start.

Leaves make stone steps and wet roots slippery. Wear shoes with a grip, and tell us where you are going.
