Calalzo What to Pack

Luggage and bags: It really depends upon what activities you intent to enjoy. Either backpack or luggage is fine. There are no cobble stones in Calalzo which create havock for rolling stock, simply smooth pavement. Your choice.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Temperatures change quickly in the mountains. When the sun hides behind the mountain tops, the warmth of the sun's rays disappears. Be prepared to change into long sleeves if the occasion calls for it. On the other hand, when it is hot, a lightweight t-shirt is appreciated.

There are few level surfaces in Calalzo, so wear appropriate footwear. If you intend to follow the trail, good solid hiking boots are a must .

Photo Equipment: We noticed one photo supply shop with a limited display of photographic equipment in the window. I'm sure batteries would be available, as would film. I wouldn't count on purchasing an additional memory card however.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Climbing gear is yours for the asking, as well as a substantial selection of hiking footwear.

Miscellaneous: Numerous maps of the area are available, including very detailed hiking maps.
