Sant'Ippolito is a quaint hilltop village located in the province of Pesaro-Urbino, nestled in the lush greenery of the Metauro Valley, between the gentle hills of the Marche inland and just a few kilometers from the Adriatic Sea. Known as “the village of stonecutters,” it boasts a rich tradition in sandstone craftsmanship, which is still evident today in the architecture of the historic center, including carved portals, fountains, and artworks scattered throughout the urban and rural landscape.
The natural surroundings of the village are perfect for outdoor enthusiasts: trekking routes, mountain biking trails, and e-bike tours wind through cultivated fields, olive groves, and woods, offering open views of the valley and surrounding hills. The proximity to the Gola del Furlo State Nature Reserve allows for exploration of an area of extraordinary geological, historical, and wildlife beauty, featuring spectacular canyons, cliffs, and paths that lead to caves and lookout points.
From Sant'Ippolito, one can easily reach some of the most picturesque destinations in the Marche and central Italy. The UNESCO World Heritage site of Urbino is less than 30 minutes away, offering a captivating journey into the heart of the Renaissance. The medieval villages of Corinaldo, Mondavio, and Gradara enchant visitors with their well-preserved architecture, while Fossombrone welcomes guests with its elegant 18th-century charm and the Concordia Bridge, which serves as a starting point for canoeing excursions.
The region is also rich in authentic flavors: from Acqualagna, the truffle capital, to local restaurants that celebrate regional cuisine with dishes such as passatelli, crescia, and formaggi di fossa, all paired with local wines like Bianchello del Metauro. The nearby seaside towns of Fano, Marotta, and Senigallia provide an alternative with equipped beaches, marinas, and vibrant historic centers.
In summary, Sant'Ippolito is a destination that harmoniously blends history, nature, craftsmanship, and gastronomy, making it ideal for those looking to discover the most authentic essence of the Marche, away from the more trodden tourist paths.
