Equestrian tourism: an opportunity to get to know evocative places rich in history and culture.
An exciting experience in contact with uncontaminated nature, to discover the beauty and variety of the Maremma landscapes.
The man on horseback is the very image of this territory, of its strength and its bursting vitality.
A ride in silence, along shady paths or following the soft curves of a river, is the easiest and most suggestive way to visit this land, immersing yourself in its colours and inebriating scents.
An unforgettable journey through woods, hills and plains, to feel suspended in a different, slower time.
And not to neglect the itinerary of taste and savour the typical dishes of the Tuscan and Maremma tradition, a stop in a AGRITOURISM, where you can rediscover the customs and rhythms of a simple life.

Ready to go fast on your bike? Good! The Maremma offers 35 dedicated cycling routes: a wide range of possibilities for bikers who love the taste of discovery and are fond of the succession of climbs and descents in one of the greenest places in Italy, which amazes with spectacular and sudden openings on breathtaking views.
You can opt for a 'grand tour' of the Maremma, along a route of around 370 km that crosses the province of Grosseto and explores the most impervious corners of this wild but spectacular part of Tuscany, or choose more adventurous routes: cross country, enduro, freeride and downhill through woods and forests, for those with adrenaline in their blood. In short, there really is something for everyone: cycling in the Maremma will be a unique experience, to be told about upon returning home!
