Bicycling
The best time of the year to tour southern Tuscany on bicycle is in the spring, from mid-April onwards until early summer, say mid-June. In July and August the climate becomes very hot (but dry), so bicycling can become difficult in the mid-day hours. Similarly, the autumn is wonderful until about early November.

Bird watching
In the vicinity of Albinia, between the state highway and the sea, stretches the Nature Reserve of Orbetello, one of the oldest and most beautiful in Italy, where many species of birds can be seen.

Argentario Golf Club
The still young par 71, 18-hole course of the Argentario peninsula (founded in 2004) is located in a protected oasis of Mediterranean maquis, with fine views across the valley to the open sea, the Orbetello lagoon and the hills of the Maremma in the distance.

Riding
The Maremma is an excellent area for riding, with 500 km of marked trails, most of them easy and accessible throughout the year.

Walks and hikes

Wine tasting
Tuscany is the source of some of the world’s best loved and most acclaimed wines, and September and October are particularly important months as they bring the ‘vendemmia’ or grape harvest.
