I 50 sentieri più belli della Toscana

No Italian region is as famous as Tuscany. Its cities of art, its hills, its wines, its cuisine and its works of art attract visitors from all over the world. For those who walk, the land of Leonardo and Dante offers an extraordinary variety of paths. This guide describes excursions to the peaks of the Apennines, the Apuan Alps, Casentino and Amiata, urban trekking in Florence, Pisa and Siena, routes overlooking the sea of the Tuscan Archipelago and the Maremma. In the hills, we describe three stages of the Via Francigena, and paths in the Crete Senesi, in the Val di Chiana, on Montalbano and in Chianti. Step by step, following our itineraries, you discover peaks and rocky walls, forests populated by deer and wolves, marshes where rare species of birds nest. Those who prefer history, alongside medieval villages and towers, discover Renaissance villas, works of industrial archaeology, marble quarries, Etruscan necropolises dug into the tuff, traces of battles along the Gothic Line. There is no shortage of itineraries of faith in the places of the Saints (Francis and others), and routes inspired by the greats of modern Tuscany, from Bettino Ricasoli to Tiziano Terzani.
