Harmony with nature, walking itineraries

PreviousNext

Slow tourism

Tranquillity, small historic villages that are intact and alive all year round, nature and landscapes in which you can rediscover the authentic contact with the world: these are some of the ingredients of slow and sustainable tourism, of an innovative way of conceiving travel as a moment of reconciliation with the territory and its deepest roots.

It's the simplicity of being able to get to know the culture of the places and people, their habits and customs, to taste the dishes of the local culinary tradition, to walk through history among historic buildings and squares animated by the weekly market, to discover the small craft shops and to stop to chat with the village's shopkeepers while enjoying a nice slice of bread with new olive oil.

Slow tourism means observing, savouring, stopping and enjoying the "dolce far niente", that time dedicated only to oneself, alone or with family or friends, and to live an holiday without schedules, without stress and plunged in a welcoming and human territory.

Travelling in harmony with nature and conviviality

For those seeking a real dimension of pure and kind of ancestral communication with nature, walking and feeling the earth beneath your feet at every step is the favourite activity. The territory of Vicopisano, which develops along the Arno River, nestled between the Monti Pisani, is the right place for hiking and trekking with expert local guides: you will be able to lose yourself among ancient religious paths, in ring routes that wind around the village of Vicopisano or along the other themed itineraries, on the tracks of watercourses and springs, in search of ancient rocks or medicinal herbs. You can venture into the woods to discover the plants and flowers of the mountain, collect mushrooms or chestnuts, climb on the Monte della Verruca to visit the Castle ruins, or climb on Monte Castellare to visit the ancient church, admire the panorama that stretches as far as the sea and have a typical Tuscan snack.

Book it

There are many associations and organisations in the area which organise excursions, walks and itineraires all year round: you are spoilt for choice and all you have to do is contact them directly or follow their programmes and proposals online to take part.

And if you want to plan a 100% slow holiday in Tuscany and want to have a full immersion experience on foot, here for you in Vicopisano is the most important walking event of the year and of the territory: the Festa Dèi Camminanti (Festival of Walkers). A three-day festival involving Vicopisano and many neighbouring towns in the Monte Pisano area and the provinces of Pisa, Livorno and Florence (Agnano, Calci, Fucecchio, Bientina, Calcinaia, Buti, Cascina, Pisa, Livorno, Altopascio, Capannori), in a programme that gets richer and richer every year, with excursions, walking trips, walking lessons, books, art and conviviality, for everyone.
