Experience nature with all your senses by walking in the Tuscan countryside. Secluded, hidden trails will lead you through scented valleys with olive groves, orchid-scattered meadows, and wheat fields colored bright red with poppies. Your walks will give you fantastic views of a seemingly endless landscape of hilltops capped with mediaeval villages and hidden forts. You will learn to read the landscape with its historical trails, get to know plants and animals and find time for chatting with the people you meet along the way. Tuscany and its impressive landscape will fascinate and stay with you always.
