That walking in the fresh air is a beneficial <\/strong>activity has always been known - and mountain trekking is no different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the contrary: between the pure air and the altitude differences, its unique characteristics make it the best activity for both body and mind!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a list of the main benefits and advantages of mountain trekking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strengthens bones and joints<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Already the simple movement of walking is a real panacea for bones <\/strong>and joints<\/strong>, reducing the stiffness caused by sedentariness and strengthening the bone structure (in fact, it is a highly recommended activity for both preventing and treating osteoporosis and similar diseases). In addition, the uphill and downhill slopes that mountain trekking presents strain about 90% of our body muscles, from the legs to the abdominals and arms - making the activity even more complete and stimulating than walking on the plains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improves cardiac activity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking in the mountains develops durability <\/strong>in a gentle and much less demanding way than 'normal' sports: the heart rate increases and the heart becomes stronger <\/strong>drastically reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and subsequent problems such as stroke and hypertension. In addition, physical activity is excellent medicine for preventing cholesterol and diabetes problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improves breathing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we have already mentioned, mountain trekking is an activity that primarily develops endurance: this also applies to breathing<\/strong>, strengthening - also thanks to the clean, smog- and toxin-free air - the entire pulmonary system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strengthens the immune system<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physical activity is the best method to prevent infectious diseases and inflammation <\/strong>: it makes the body gradually more resistant to the attack of viruses and bacteria (and stronger when fighting them), and by reducing inflammation it avoids the risk of complications and worsening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reduces stress and increases serenity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is perhaps the main benefit <\/strong>of mountain trekking, and there are many elements that contribute to making it possible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
