Embark on the Spuntone di Sant'Allago Loop, a moderate hike that covers 3.0 miles (4.8 km) and climbs 719 feet (219 metres). You can expect to complete this route in about 1 hour and 40 minutes. The trail winds through diverse terrain, transitioning from narrow singletrack paths to wider cart tracks. As you hike, you will pass through lush chestnut, fir, beech, and cherry woods, with many shaded sections offering a pleasant journey. The highlight is reaching the Santallago Spur, where you will find extensive panoramic views, including sights of Lucca and Calci from a crest.
For planning your visit, the Tenuta di Santallago estate serves as a convenient starting point for this hike. Located at 800 meters, it offers ample parking, a restaurant, and accommodation, making it easy to begin your adventure. Be aware that a brief but very steep section on the ascent from Campo di Croce may challenge you if you are not accustomed to mountain walking. Consider this when you plan your pace and prepare for the route.
This circular route offers a rewarding experience for hikers exploring the Monti Pisani area of Tuscany. The trail's varied landscape, from dense woodlands to open viewpoints, showcases the natural beauty of the region. The Santallago Spur provides a unique vantage point, allowing you to appreciate the expansive surroundings.
