Maremma is a fascinating destination that deserves to be visited in autumn and winter when there are fewer tourists, and the landscapes showcase their unique seasonal charm.
GOLF
The mild temperatures allow for golfing even during autumn and winter. In addition to playing on the eco-friendly course of Argentario Golf Club, you can also discover the nearby courses in the Maremma Golf District or plan a golf day in Rome, the host city of the 2023 Ryder Cup.
GASTRONOMIC EXPERIENCES AND WINERIES
Dedicate a day to exploring the colors and flavors of Maremma, indulging in tastings and guided tours of wineries and olive mills. Among the many options, we suggest the futuristic estate of Ammiraglia dei Marchesi Frescobaldi, near Magliano in Tuscany, a territory to be discovered by strolling through the vineyards and visiting the cellar where you can taste the various menus offered, accompanied by the estate’s precious wines.
On the other hand, the Monteverro Estate is located at the foot of the medieval village of Capalbio. The hilly terrain and the immediate proximity to the sea give rise to a microclimate that distinguishes its wines. The unique composition of the soil, consisting of multiple layers of rock and red clay, makes this cultivation area one of the most mineral-rich in the world.
SPORTS & TERME (HOT SPRINGS)
Rent a bicycle and explore the beautiful Feniglia Dune Reserve, play tennis, paddle or soccer, take a hike in the Maremma Natural Park in Alberese, go horseback riding along the coast, or plan a day trip for skiing on Monte Amiata. Take advantage of the cooler days to warm up in the thermal waters of Terme di Saturnia, which can be reached in less than an hour from the Relais.
ARCHAEOLOGY AND VILLAGES
Maremma also offers cultural vacations for those who love history and art. There are numerous traces of the past left by the Etruscans, Romans, Spaniards, and important medieval families.
A vast artistic and archaeological heritage of the highest level, from necropolises to abandoned ancient cities, including towers, castles, fortresses, citadels, cathedrals, monasteries, abbeys, and artistic gardens. Visit the archaeological site of Cosa, just a 20-minute drive from the Relais, or venture inland to explore the historic park of Vulci and the tufaceous villages of Pitigliano, Sovana, and Sorano.
Explore the beautiful coastal villages and fortresses of Porto Ercole and Porto Santo Stefano. Be inspired by the “chic” spirit of Capalbio with its ancient village and the hinterland with its landscapes of fields and hills.
