Magaro Hiking Area

Highlight • Trail

In the Galicica National Park there are some hiking trails of approx. 1 to 5 hours in length in the area around Mount Magaro. A fee must be paid at the entrance to the park. The amount depends on the planned goal.
If you want, you can just come here for a picnic. A nice place with barbecue areas has been set up near the entrance.

Steep Descent on Mount Magaro

Highlight • Trail

If you head clockwise up Magaro, you'll descend through a long, narrow gully that requires surefootedness. It's still easy to walk, and you'll be rewarded with a beautiful view down the mountain.
