The Tuscan Maremma
Rolling green hills an, infinity of fine sandy beaches,
azure sea, medieval villages, archaeological sites:
this is the wildest and most rural part of Tuscany.
Areas of historical and archaeological interest are
easily reached on walks through its luscious vegetation.
The Maremma Natural Park, which runs along the southern
coast, is only one of the 13 Natural Reserves of the
Province of Grosseto, managing to combine tourism with
the utmost respect for the environment and history of
the area.
The same respect is found again in the upkeep of popular
traditions together with the attention to quality of
the traditional cooking. The Maremma cuisine, quality
guaranteed D.O.C. wines, extra virgin oils, the ‘acquacotta’
soup, pappardelle pasta in game sauce, filled tortelli,
all of these delight and surprise by the genuineness
of ingredients and integrity of the recipes.
