Introducing Southern Tuscany

This is a land of lush rumpled hills, distant smoky mountains and ancient hill-top villages. For pure drama, there are Etruscan sites like the enigmatic vie cave, or sunken roads, over whose significance archaeologists still puzzle, and the inimitable, looming town of Pitigliano. Dunk yourself in the hot natural pools of Saturnia or laze on the smart marinas and good beaches of Monte Argentario.

The quiet Parco Regionale della Maremma embraces the most varied and attractive stretch of the Tuscan coastline.
