San Vincenzo and the Etruscan Coast

Residence and apartments near the beach of San Vincenzo, on the Etruscan Coast

Just travel a few kilometers to go back in time, dive into the Middle Ages by visiting the ancient villages of Campiglia, Suvereto, Castagneto Carducci, up to the Etruscan civilization (with the archaeological park) of Baratti.

It only takes a moment to be swallowed by the silence of the metalliferous hills or to be dazzled by the blue sea of the Populonia cliffs, by the infinite and precious vineyards and by the green expanses of olive trees, by the holm oak woods and by the majestic pine forests; indulge in the smells of nature and be attracted by the flavors of an ancient land rich in traditions that are still handed down: colorful and tasty vegetable soups, rich legume soups and important roasts of game generously enriched with excellent oil and tasted with fine wine.

San Vincenzo is a modern and welcoming town, full of attractions and equipped with a well-equipped tourist port.

Thematic itineraries recommended by Stefania

Stefania knows her land very well and therefore when interviewed she tells us: "I would like to suggest some itineraries".

1) BETWEEN SEA AND HISTORY (by car, motorbike and bike): full day itinerary.
Morning: traveling about ten kilometers towards Piombino you reach the Gulf of Baratti where you can visit the necropolis and the Etruscan acropolis. High up on the hill overlooking the village of Populonia, after visiting the tower of the ancient castle and after admiring the infinite panorama, you can take a few minutes to buy handmade souvenirs in the shops of the village.
Afternoon: descending from Populonia, halfway, a dirt parking invites us to a path in the woods (on foot) that leads us to the rocks of Buca delle Fate, a sight not to be missed with a crystal clear sea (from the Gulf of Baratti rubber boats and get to Buca delle Fate from the sea). If you are not a lover of rocks, you can lie in the sun on the beach of the gulf.

2) BETWEEN NATURE AND GASTRONOMY (by car, motorbike and bike): food and wine itineraries in Tuscany.
Half day: from San Vincenzo to the north along the old Aurelia state road up to Castagneto Carducci, a medieval village continuing to Bolgheri, an ancient village where a stop for lunch is a must.
All day: from San Vincenzo to the medieval village of Campiglia Marittima, to visit the well-preserved historic center, the fortress and outside the town the Archaeological - Mining park of San Silvestro; we continue inland and we meet Suvereto surrounded by the ancient walls and by the many farmhouses where you can taste dishes still cooked according to the tradition of peasant housewives.

3) FOR TREKKING AND MOUNTAIN BIKE LOVERS
For those who want to walk and pedal, there are many paths created inside the woods of the hills (example: path the Corbezzolo in San Vincenzo and Campiglia) and along the coast (example: from Populonia to Piombino).
