Parks
and NatureMaremma Regional Park.
This is the Tuscany of the butteri (local cowboys)
and herds raised in the wild, but also of the porcupine,
shy deer, fox and Mediterranean underbrush with its
stunning scents and colours.
Protagonists of the landscape are the mountains of
Uccellina, a green coastal ridge dotted with romantic
remains of old watchtowers and a Cistercian abbey.
At the foot of the mountains, to the west we have
the Tyrrheanian sea with its beaches and uncontaminated
rocky coasts, while northward extends the plain of
the Ombrone river delta.
With is swamps teeming with life, monumental pine
forests and solitary pastures, Maremma is a Tuscany
one never forgets.
