Punta Ala Trail Center went for a hike.
July 7, 2025
This is a loop hike of approx. 8km, with 190 m of ascent and 180 m of descen. It’s a scenic and moderately easy trail through Mediterranean woodland, leading to one of Tuscany’s most iconic beaches — Cala Violina — with the added bonus of a sunset swim. The route starts at the Punta Ala Camp & Resort and follows the “Sentiero delle Api”, a shaded forest path through dense Mediterranean scrub, with gentle rolling terrain and a mostly compact dirt surface. After roughly 4 km, you’ll reach Cala Violina, located in the Bandite di Scarlino Nature Reserve — accessible only on foot or by bike. Cala Violina is renowned for its fine, white quartz sand, which emits a soft violin-like sound when walked on. It's the perfect spot for a quick swim around sunset before beginning the return. The way back takes a shorter, more panoramic trail with some steeper gradients and exposed sections, offering sweeping views over Cala Civette, the Gulf of Follonica, and the coastline near PuntAla Camp & Resort. Trail surface: compact dirt, natural rock, light gravel. Level: easy Gear: trail or hiking shoes, swimwear, water, headlamp (for late return), insect repellent.
