Maremma Natural Park – Tuscany: wild coast, Mediterranean scents and slow paths between pine forests and towers on the sea. The Maremma Natural Park, also known as the Uccellina Park, extends between Principina a Mare and Talamone, embracing one of the most authentic and wild areas of the Grosseto Maremma. Among Mediterranean scrub, pastures, hills, pristine beaches and ancient watchtowers, the park offers immersive experiences for those who love true contact with nature. 🌿 Paths through woods and coastal views: The park is crisscrossed by numerous hiking trails of varying difficulty, some with free access, others guided. You walk through pine forests, olive groves, hills of holm oaks, clearings and spectacular views of the sea. The routes pass medieval towers, caves and ancient settlements, offering priceless views of the coast. 👉 Tip: Take the A2 path to the Tower of Castel Marino: a panoramic walk that culminates with an open view of the Argentario and the Orbetello lagoon. 🦌 Wildlife and untouched landscapes: The park is a refuge for a very rich fauna: wild boars, fallow deer, foxes, turtles, herons, peregrine falcons and Maremma cattle. The humid environments near the mouth of the Ombrone are perfect for birdwatching, while the hilly areas offer the silence and solemnity of an almost intact nature. 👉 Tip: Early in the morning, take a guided tour of the Trappola wetland to spot migratory birds and birds of prey in flight. 🌊 Wild beaches and clear sea: Inside the park there are pristine beaches such as Collelungo and Cala di Forno, within walking distance. Here the landscape is dominated by sand dunes, pine forests behind and crystal clear waters. There are no establishments: only nature, sea and infinite silence. 👉 Tip: Bring everything you need in your backpack and plan a day at Cala di Forno: it is one of the wildest and most beautiful beaches in Tuscany. 🚴 Experiences on horseback, by bike or by canoe: In addition to trekking, the park offers horseback riding, cycling and canoeing on the Ombrone. The activities are organized by local centers and always take place in respect of the environment, often accompanied by environmental guides. 👉 Tip: Experience a sunset excursion on horseback between the pine forest and the beach: a unique way to feel the soul of the Maremma. 🛏️ Where to stay: Near the park there are farmhouses immersed in the countryside, rural B&Bs, eco-sustainable campsites and small hotels. Areas such as Alberese, Talamone and Rispescia are perfect as a base to explore the park and live the authentic Maremma experience. 👉 Tip: Stay in Alberese: it is the gateway to the park, with bike rental, infopoint and quiet atmosphere. The Maremma Park is a place where nature is still the master of time, and every step through its hills tells of a deep, free and bright Tuscany.
