Home » Vetulonia: the lost and found city
This route, though short, allows one to immerse oneself in another dimension, to take a leap back in time and trace the history of the territory of the legendary Vetulonia and the Maremma region in general.
It is an excursion that leads to the discovery of the Etruscan civilization, under different facets and customs, as well as naturalistic aspects. Inside the forest, you will walk along a Roman cobblestone and encounter ancient hidden tombs.
Technical description:
The 4-km tour includes a mixed route: both touristic, with a visit to the small town of Vetulonia, and naturalistic. The trek is a loop in the middle of the forest, so the trail is bumpy and uneven (presence of stones, leaves, roots). The last part is uphill.
