In Tuscany, between land and sea: a stone’s throw from the medieval village of Montescudaio, 4 km from the beach of Marina di Cecina, immersed in a forest of 17 hectares, Montescudaio Village is the new eco-friendly camping of the group specialized in open air hospitality Human Company which combines two strong needs of these times: contact with nature and life in the open air with high-level hospitality. A contemporary “glamping” with boutique hotel services but under the stars.
Just choose your accommodation among six different types of mobile homes, all beautiful with veranda and design (perhaps our favorite is the «Greeny“), until to “Safari tents»To feel in the middle of the savannah, but in Tuscany.
A camping with maximum comfort but closely linked to nature and the territory. For guests – in addition to a water park in the woods from which it is difficult to break away and restaurants with typical products – there is an excursion program that allows you to experience and get to know this magical stretch of Tuscany. Here’s what we did.
From Montescudaio to Bolgheri on the wine road
Very small, with a long past famous for its extra virgin olive oil and PDO Tuscan Pane, the insipid one they also call “silly”, Montescudaio is the icon of the perfect Tuscan village, perched on a hill, true enough and enchanting at the same time , the right place to have breakfast at the bar or to have a glass of wine in the evening (at Enoteca Il Celliere for example). Wine is the road that also leads to Bolgheri. Here, on the The Etruscan Coast wine route there is one of the largest wineries in the area, Vaira Estate, an extension of over 50 hectares of land, divided into 13 vineyards, over 2,000 olive trees and the remaining arable land and woodland. It is a family story that combines tradition with the project of a new winery that welcomes tourists all year round, with tastings and wine tours.
A night in the woods: walking under the stars at the Wildlife Refuge
The experience of walking in the woods, at night, under the light of the moon and stars, accompanied only by the sounds of the plants moved by the wind is unforgettable. We start in line with the falling of darkness and then we proceed in the dark with only one rule: walk in silence. During the 9-kilometer hike, you will learn to distinguish sounds, cries and noises of the night, to discover biodiversity along the way, to orient yourself with the stars and the glow of fireflies.
The Padule di Bolgheri Wildlife Refuge it is a wildlife refuge for numerous animal species and a splendid example of a typical environment of the Upper Maremma. Established in 1959 by the will of the Marquis Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, the area of about 440 hectares was transformed into the first private Wildlife Refuge in Italy to protect woods, wet meadows, pastures, crops and about 80 hectares of freshwater marsh. In 1967 it became the first private protected area to be affiliated with WWF Italy and in 1977, moreover, on the basis of the Ramsar International Convention, it was declared a Wetland of National Importance. Night hikes are organized every Saturday, in the summer, by the WWF by reservation for small groups ([email protected], cell. 389 9578763).
