Via degli Dei (81 mi)

Seven days of walking from Piazza Maggiore, in Bologna, to Piazza Della Signoria, in Florence. In between, there is the mysterious charm of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, a border where people, stories, and traditions meet and merge into each other. This trail spans over millennia, as testified by the Flaminia Militare, a road that led the Roman legions to the conquest of the Po Valley, and which ruins are still visible beside the track.

Via della lana e della seta (81 mi)

The Via della Lana e della Seta (Wool and Silk Road) links Bologna to Prato, running almost parallel to the Via degli Dei, and owes its name to the two products that have characterised the manufacturing activities of the respective cities since the Middle Ages. Amidst breathtaking views and wonderful paths through the woods, the route also offers important historical evidence, from the Etruscan ruins scattered throughout the territory to the Monte Sole Park, sadly famous for the massacres carried out by the Nazi-Fascists in 1944.

Monte Labbro Ring Path (15.5 km)

This round path starts from Arcidosso, a town situated at the foot of Monte Amiata.

Here, in the seventies of the 18th century, Davide Lazzaretti established the Jurisdavid Church, and this place is totally worth a visit for its suggestive atmosphere and for the amazing view you can enjoy from the top of the tower.
