Urban trekking and gardens in Florence

About this activity

Have you ever thought about combining a sightseeing tour of a city with healthy physical activity? Florence, surrounded by gentle and panoramic hills, offers you this opportunity! An unusual soft-trekking to enjoy some of the green areas and reach an unforgettable point of view.

From Ponte Vecchio you can reach Oltrarno, to reach the Boboli gardens that extend from the hill behind Palazzo Pitti. Go up the amphitheater, admiring enchanting fields, avenues, small groves and splendid panoramic views dotted with fountains, statues and caves.

After reaching its highest part, you will appreciate the Belvedere Fortress, used by Galileo Galilei for its astronomical observations, thanks to its strategic position.

You will enter the nearby Bardini garden, walking along the baroque staircase and the wisteria tunnel, both leading to the Kaffeehaus. Your "detoxifying" walk will end in Piazzale Michelangelo.
