Ambra’s historic “heather” street

A tour in the area surrounding Bucine following in the footsteps of the Etruscan forefathers

Do you love hiking through nature? The Valdambra is the perfect place for you. Among vineyards, olive groves and oak forests, you can walk in the open air in the surroundings of Bucine, discovering its authentic beauty. The route we suggest to you goes in a loop starting and ending in the small town of Ambra, winding through San Pancrazio and Gavignano, through Etruscan ruins and ancient settlements.

The route starts next to the town of Ambra and goes up to the stream of the same name. Here you can visit the ancient castle, damaged over the course of the 14th century by Florentine troops, and a noteworthy Etruscan settlement.
