Area Campagna

Montecarlo is a small medieval village in the Lucchese region, nestled among the hills of northern Tuscany. The town, still encircled by 14th-century walls, boasts a charming historic center featuring cobblestone streets, towers, churches, and small squares that narrate centuries of history. From this vantage point, one can enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys, where rows of vines, olive groves, and forests create a typically Tuscan landscape.

This area is famous for producing high-quality DOC wine and extra virgin olive oil, which can be tasted at the many wineries and oil mills in the region. Walking through the hills, visitors can explore hiking and biking trails that connect quaint villages, historic villas, and ancient monasteries, offering scenic vistas and culturally significant sites.

Montecarlo's strategic location makes it an ideal base for visiting some of Tuscany's most iconic cities. In less than an hour’s drive, you can reach Lucca, known for its famous Renaissance walls and lively squares; Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance rich in museums and historic buildings; and Pisa, home to the famous leaning tower and its charming historic center. Also nearby are Siena, San Gimignano, the beaches of Versilia, and the thermal baths of Montecatini.

The village is vibrant year-round with cultural and gastronomic events, including the historic Wine Festival and the Settembre Montecarlese, which celebrate the region's winemaking traditions. The area is dotted with trattorias, wine shops, and restaurants where you can savor traditional Tuscan dishes such as hearty soups, fresh pasta, and grilled meats, all paired with renowned local wines.

The surrounding countryside, with its slow pace and relaxing atmosphere, invites you to experience authentic encounters with nature through tastings, walks, and moments of pure relaxation under the Tuscan sun.
