On the Reggio Apennines, the Pietra di Bismantova is an isolated monolith surrounded by woods and badlands. Though cited by Dante, it remains an off-the-beaten-track destination: reached from the villages of the Emilian hinterland, far from the tourist flows of the coast and the art cities.

Punta La Marmora, in the Gennargentu massif, is the highest peak in Sardinia. Amid barren uplands and mouflons, it is one of the least-visited corners of the island: those who come for the beaches rarely climb this far, into the wild heart of Barbagia in the province of Nuoro.

Lago della Duchessa is a small glacial lake hidden among the limestone ridges on the border between Lazio and Abruzzo, in the reserve of the same name between Rieti and L'Aquila. Though close to Rome, it remains a destination for just a few hikers, far from the busiest tourist routes.

The Bulgarian section of the European E3 trail crosses the entire Stara Planina ridge, from the Serbian border to the Black Sea. Hundreds of kilometres of crest with huts and panoramic ridges, still almost unknown outside the Balkans: one of Europe's great treks that has stayed off the radar.

In Romania's Southern Carpathians, the Retezat holds dozens of alpine lakes set in granite and is a biosphere reserve. Awkward access and little publicity keep it in the shadow of the more famous Făgăraș: a high-altitude paradise for those seeking silence and untouched nature.

The Apuseni Mountains, in western Romania, form a limestone plateau of glacial caves, deep gorges and isolated Moți villages. Here hiking is still rural and almost non-existent: a karst landscape well off the beaten track, perfect for anyone seeking authentic mountain nature and culture.
