Sunday hiking tours

Our guided tours:

• Path of the Fairy tale: it’s a very peaceful trail that start in Pescia and cross the country side going to Collodi. The first part is quite flat, but the second one rises the hill with about 300m of elevation gain.
• Buggiano and Colle: it’s an interesting trail that will let you visit ancient villages  and find out ancient mills along the stream.
• The old oak of Pinocchio: the trail will lead you in woodlands and countryside visiting the oak that inspired Carlo Lorenzini (Collodi) for the novel of Pinocchio.
• Vinci countryside: the trail will let you find out the wonderful landscape of the natal town of the genius Leonardo da Vinci.
• Monsummano Alto: this is a wonderful trail rising the hill of Monsummano. A particular flora and the abandoned village are the richness of this trail.
• Fucecchio marshes: a very flat and easy trail between history and nature not far from Monsummano.
• Poggio alla Guardia: visit the hills near Montecatini and find out the small bridge where Dante Alighieri is supposed to be passed on.
