Marina di Bibbona Beach

Highlight • Beach

On the coast between Cecina, Bibbona and the hamlets of Marina di Bibbona and La California, this long and narrow pine forest is perfect for cycling in the cool and among the trees. Those who cycle here more often assure that it is difficult to hear the rain or get wet when it rains, so thick are the treetops.

Castagneto [ie chestnut wood]

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful climb with panoramic views of the coast .... once you get to the village it is worth taking a tour of the center of the very characteristic village, also at the end of the climb there is a fountain to fill water bottles.

Bolgheri

Highlight • Settlement

The village of Bolgheri has grown around a medieval castle belonging to the Counts Della Gherardesca.
It is located on a small hill and a long straight tree-lined road (Viale dei Cipressi) connects it with via Aurelia (State Road .n1) near a small temple, the Oratory of San Guido, celebrated by a famous Italian poet (Nobel Prize for literature in 1906) Giosuè Carducci, who spent his childhood at Bolgheri. Streets, squares, monuments of the village, in fact, are named after people and places dear to the poet.
But Bolgheri is also known for the high quality wine production: in the countryside all around the village are cultivated vineyards that produce excellent wines such as Ornellaia and Sassicaia.

Tomboli di Cecina Biogenetic Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

The large area that runs along the sea between Marina di Cecina and Marina di Bibbona hosts a Biogenetic Nature Reserve, characterized by resinous and aromatic plants, Mediterranean scrub and, above all, tall pines (Pinus Pinea and Pinus Maritima). The long, suggestive main "avenue" (on which there are cross paths leading to the sea) can be traveled freely, both on foot and by mountain bike (the ground, covered with pine needles and sand, is not suitable for all types of bicycles). There are drinking fountains (at the beginning and at the end) and picnic tables.
