Castagneto [ie chestnut wood]

Highlight • Trail

The approach to Castagneto Carducci is very nice, here it goes up from the coastal plain for the first time and you drive in serpentines towards the old town.

View of Sassetta

Highlight • Settlement

Sassetta is a picturesque village located in the Cornia valley, characterized by narrow streets and quiet squares. This location is renowned for its red marble, a world rarity, which has always been expertly shaped by stonecutters and skilled sculptors.

Single track a bit technical but doable when dry. Not recommended after rain because slippery. From here you get to the Cala Violina car park

View of Cala Violina

Highlight • Viewpoint

From Portiglione you can reach Cala Violina with a normal trekking bike in about 30 minutes.
Two or three times we had to push a few meters because of rubble... no big deal.
We are both over 50 and not particularly trained.
The wonderful view of the sea from far above and, last but not least, Cala Violina makes the effort well worth it.

May 24, 2024,Tuscany Trail 2024. 1° Tappa Donoratico - Castiglione della Pescaia
The Tuscany Trail returns on time this year in a "reverse" form compared to the last edition. There are almost 5,000 of us and it has now become a classic both in numbers and people, a varied world of Italians and foreigners. It is practically the reverse tour compared to last year with the classic departure from the Sughere park …
