Duna Feniglia Pine Forest Trail

Highlight • Forest

The Feniglia nature reserve extends over a seven-kilometer-long dune for a surface of 474 hectares that separates the open sea from the eastern lagoon of Orbetello.

The vegetation is composed of maritime pines, stone pines, cork oaks, holm oaks, sea lilies, junipers and shrubs of the Mediterranean scrub. The flora is instead composed of many deer, some wild boars, foxes, badgers, weasels and other rodents.

The entire reserve can be explored on foot or by bicycle on a dirt but beaten road and is an ideal itinerary to avoid having to travel along the Aurelia between Ansedonia and Orbetello.

The northern scenic road and the south following dirt road are for me the most beautiful tours ever.

View of Isola del Giglio

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this panoramic point on the coast of the municipality of Monte Argentario, you can enjoy a great view of the island of Giglio. With the smaller Giannutri, Giglio represents the southernmost part of the Tuscan archipelago and is famous for its beaches, places of historical and artistic interest and, sadly, for the shipwrecks that have occurred off its coast.

View of Cala Piazzoni

Highlight • Viewpoint

Absolutely to do if you are visiting the Argentario, itinerary for the most part on asphalt, some uphill sections with steep slopes, but the landscapes fully reward the effort.

View of Porto Ercole Harbor

Highlight • Viewpoint

The hilly Monte Argentario peninsula is a constant source of ups and downs, including here in the small village of Porto Ercole. Thanks to the elevated position, you have a good view of the harbor, the lively promenade, and the fishing activities below.

April 25, 2025,Per Rad um den Monte Argentario 🚲🐕
I had actually planned to add an overnight stay to the circumnavigation and enjoy the sea view from my tent in solitude. However, solitude is hard to come by at this time of year. The entire island can be circumnavigated on asphalt, interrupted only by a good 3 km of gravel towards the end. As a result, 90% of all …

Orbetello is a unique Tuscan town. Its location is equally unique: it is nestled on the thin strip of land that juts out towards Monte Argentario. The ring that embraces the Orbetello lagoon is a cycle path, largely separated from vehicular traffic, which combines the wild beauty of the Feniglia Dune with the spectacle of one of the most important …

May weekend

Rather the most interesting places because it should be the annual weekend 😁

There is a stretch of approx. 5km suitable only for mountain bikes and only for experts. With a trekking bike you have to push.

Beautiful lap, but very demanding for a trained average like me. Some impossible stretches, I got off and pushed. Nature is the great protagonist. Departure from Orbetello immediately cycle path chosen to go around counterclockwise to always have the sea close by. Beautiful views of enchanted bays. Stretch of dirt road in some places stony. My descents are demanding on …

Finally I managed to go around the Argentario, planned for some time! Departure from Orbetello station, with a visit to the historic center and adjacent lagoons. After Porto Santo Stefano the climb begins, get water as there are no fountains, restaurants or other for about 30 km. Excellent lunch break at the "Le Viste" bar (an oasis in the desert!). …
