@ The Tuscan Landscape


Tuscan hills, with their vineyards and olive groves, are famous all over the world. Actually, altough Tuscany is mainly a hilly region, it presents diverse landscapes. The Apennine cross the inner part of Tuscany and in the north join the Apuan Alps, with their famous marble quarries. Lunigiana, Garfagnana, Mugello and Casentino spread in this mountain landscape. Hikers will certainly love walking in their magnificent forests. The long beaches of the Versilia and of the provinces of Pisa and Livorno spread along the coast, alternating with the promontories of Piombino and Monte Argentario. Tuscany is not rich in plains but is rich in islands. The Elba Isle is the biggest island of the Tuscan archipelago, which includes Gorgona, Capraia, Pianosa, Montecristo, Giglio and Giannutri as well as some smaller islands known as the "Formiche di Grosseto" (Grosseto`s Ants). Maremma spreads in the south of Tuscany This wild and scarcely populated area, once a big marshy region, is now a fertile land thanks to the reclamation program set off in 1828. Tuscan vegetation is rich and diverse: pinewoods and maquis along the coast, forests in the mountains and meadows, fileds, vineyards and olive groves on the gentle hilly.
