Area Campagna

La Funambola is situated in one of the most picturesque areas of Tuscany, nestled between the Chianti hills and the Pratomagno massif. This location allows visitors to fully enjoy the beauty of the countryside while easily accessing some of Italy's most famous art cities. Florence, Arezzo, and Siena are just a short distance away, housing masterpieces of the Renaissance, stunning squares, and world-renowned museums.

Nearby, there are routes that take you through well-preserved medieval villages such as San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, and Pienza, where time seems to have stood still. Scenic roads wind through hills adorned with vineyards, olive groves, and cypress trees, leading to wineries and farms that produce the famous Chianti, one of the most celebrated wines globally.

Nature enthusiasts can explore the Pratomagno mountain range, which separates the Casentino from the Valdarno, making it perfect for hiking, cycling, and outdoor activities. There are also paths connected to spirituality, such as the nearby Abbey of Vallombrosa, surrounded by a monumental forest, or the trails of the Via Francigena that wind through these lands.

The region is also rich in culinary traditions: local trattorias and osterias offer cheese, cured meats, extra virgin olive oil, and typical Tuscan dishes. With markets, festivals, and local celebrations, a stay here provides an opportunity to immerse oneself in the authentic culture of an area that harmoniously blends nature, history, and flavors.

Choosing La Funambola means having access to the most genuine Tuscany, with its art cities, charming villages, iconic landscapes, and experiences that make every journey unforgettable.
