Italy attracts millions of tourists every year. The country is also home to multitudes of international migrants. Expat professionals in Italy send remittances to their home countries via the Ria Money Transfer App and other channels. The mention of Italy invokes a vision of beautiful valleys, sparkling rivers, and quaint mountain towns filled with classical architecture. However Italy has more to offer than picturesque landscapes. It has a range of options for adventure lovers and adrenalin junkies. Here is a short selection of ideas.

Radical holiday ideas in Italy

Ziplining over the Dolomites

The Dolomites comprise a mountain range in North Italy. The range is famous for jagged limestone peaks and steep cliffs. Nestled between two mountains in the Dolomiti Lucane region are the villages of Pietrapertosa and Castelmezzano. Between them is the Volo dell’Angelo (Flight of the Angel), a zipline connecting the two peaks. Visitors can enjoy the rush of soaring over the scenic Italian countryside at speeds reaching 100 kph.

Tickets cost EUR 35 for single and EUR 63 for a couple (tandem) flight on weekdays. On weekends the cost is EUR 40 for single and EUR 72 for a couple. A ticket includes an outward flight and a return flight, as well as a shuttle service. There is a weight limitation of 150 kg for single or couple, along with other safety considerations. Children under 12 years can enjoy the thrill paired with an adult. The rides operate out of Castelmezzano, which enjoys road connectivity with Naples.

Paragliding in Malcesine

Tandem paragliding is the most popular tourist activity in Malcesine in the Verona region in North Italy. Visitors can gently glide over Lake Garda and enjoy the delightful sights of the entire region. The flight starts at a height of 1.7 km. Flight time is generally 20-30 minutes depending on wind conditions. Local paragliding experts operate the flights with comprehensive safety precautions.

A single flight costs EUR 170 per season during the peak months of July, August, and September. The cost is EUR 150 during the rest of the year. The price includes a cable car ticket and an SD Card with a movie of your flight in HD. There is no age limit. However participants must be in good health. Malcesine can be reached by bus or train from Verona Airport, which is about 60 km away.

Canyoning through the Umbrian Highlands

Umbria in Central Italy is the perfect place to mix spelunking with rock climbing. Participants enjoy rappelling down hillsides, going through waterfalls, and diving into ravines. There are 5 such spots in the Umbrian Highlands, each offering a different level of challenge. Visitors can choose to take up these adventures on their own. Hiring a guide can guarantee a much more complete experience.

Prices start at EUR 65 per person. This includes the use of a Neoprene wetsuit, helmet, and harness. Minimum age is 14. Minors need parental consent. The activity can take half a day, so it is exclusively for the fit and athletic. Most visitors fly into Umbria or reach by car from Milan.

White water rafting in Calabria

Calabria in south Italy offers abundant water sports options. White water rafting is among the favorites. Rafting over the uneven waters of the Lao river is a thrilling experience. The downstream stretch can take from 1-5 hours depending on the selected operator and route. The prices are affordable due to high competition among the operators in Calabria. Costs start at EUR 25 per person for 1 hour of ‘soft rafting’, and can go up to EUR 75 per person. With most operators the price includes transport, the use of a wetsuit, life jacket, neoprene shoes, and helmet. Calabra has good air connectivity with Lamezia, Sant’Anna, and Reggio airports.

Snowboarding in Livigno

Livigno is a mountain town nestled in the Italian Alps in the region of Lombardy. It is one of the cheapest places in Europe to enjoy snowboarding, and one of the best in Italy. The town enjoys a long snowboarding season. There are large, open terrains and wide motorway runs which make the place suitable for both beginners and intermediates. Visitors can certainly get their own snowboards and gear, or rent these for as low as EUR 30 per day per person. Participants need to purchase a lift pass to use the ski lifts and cable cars. A day-long lift pass costs EUR 50. The nearest major town is Milan. Tourists can reach Livigno by bus, train, or car.
