2025 Magliano in Toscana Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

🍇 Discover the Quiet Charms of Magliano in Toscana’s Vine-Covered Countryside! Nestled in the heart of the Grosseto province, this slow-travel adventure blends dreamy agroturismo stays with cypress-lined lanes, historic ruins, and sweeping vineyard panoramas—a true Tuscan escape! 🏞️ Kick things off at Viale dei cipressi (Strada Provinciale Aquilaia, 58051 Scansano GR), a picture-perfect drive or stroll surrounded by majestic cypress trees—the ultimate “la dolce vita” photo op, especially during golden hour. Snap some timeless shots before you head to Colle di Lupo, a tranquil hill spot in 58051 Magliano in Toscana. Here, stretch your legs and soak in rolling vineyards, olive groves, and magical sunset views: it’s peaceful, uncrowded, and ideal for a picnic or sketching. A short walk away, step inside the Chiesa di Santa Maria a Colle di Lupo (Fattoria Colle Lupo), a rustic countryside church that makes a beautiful backdrop for moody portraits and a moment of Tuscan calm. Next, visit Azienda Agricola Le Sughere (Strada Palazzuolo, Magliano FI) to sample robust local wines—perfect for pairing with regional cheeses. If you’re staying at an agroturismo, enjoy slow-paced mornings sipping coffee with a vineyard view (my favorite part—unbeatable relaxation!). Round off your day with a breeze through the evocative ruins of Abbazia di San Bruzio (58051 Magliano in Toscana; open all day, year-round). The centuries-old columns, framed by wildflowers, are catnip for history buffs and photographers alike. Tips: Bring comfy shoes for gravel paths and cobbles, a wide-brim hat for shade, and don’t forget a bottle of water—country stores can be sparse. The magic here is in the slowness—so linger, sip, and take it all in. #MaglianoInToscana #TuscanyTravel #VineyardViews #SlowTravel #HiddenGems #mediterraneanvibes #mediterranean

Step into the timeless charm and slow-living magic of rural Tuscany! 🍇🏰 Get ready for a day weaving through ancient gates, sleepy villages, and postcard-perfect towers—from the medieval streets of Magliano in Toscana to the enchanting corners of Scansano. Start your journey at Porta Di Ponente (SS323, 1, 58051 Scansano GR), an impressive city gate offering dramatic first views of walled Magliano. Continue to Pereta for the Torre dell'Orologio (Via Della Torre, 58051 Pereta): climb the winding stairs for picture-perfect panoramas of hilltop rooftops and rolling countryside—best snapped at golden hour! Just steps away, visit Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista (Via Roma, 46, 58051 Pereta), where the peaceful stone interior feels centuries away from the rush of everyday life. Don’t miss the detail-rich altar for intimate photos. Wander to Torre di Pereta (Piazza Morandini, 9), a striking defensive tower—snap a shot from below with the blue Tuscan sky framing its stone arches. Wrap up your stroll at Le Cascine (Via XX Settembre, 27, 58054 Scansano GR), a tranquil green park ideal for a picnic with fresh bread, pecorino cheese, and local wine. Tips: Most of these villages feel frozen in time—arrive early or late afternoon for serene streets and soft sunlight. Wear comfy shoes (cobblestones abound!) and have cash handy for small-town cafés or gelato. While the towers and churches are generally open, check in advance for mid-day closures. #Tuscany #MaglianoInToscana #Scansano #TravelItaly #HiddenGems#mediterraneanvibes #mediterranean

Located 2.5 hrs away from Rome or 3.5 hrs away from Florence is a hidden gem so therapeutic that I could have easily stayed for hours. Cascate del Mulino is a beauty to behold! These natural hot springs stay at a comfortable temperature of 37.5 degrees Celcius (99.5 F). I did this as a day trip from Rome, leaving at 5am with my rental car. The goal was to actually leave at 4am for sunrise but I overslept 😣.⠀⠀ ⠀ Get here early to avoid the crowd. A lot of people make the mistake of calling this place "Terme di Saturnia" but that's actually the name of a nearby hotel about 4 mins away. If you come for sunrise, there's a good chance you'll have this place to yourself for an hour or so. If you come late morning to midday, these hot springs will start to look like a waterpark with all the people here. By the time I started recording this video, some people had already started getting in the pools but luckily I managed to snap photos without anyone in the springs.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ On the left side of this abandoned house, you can easily climb up to the stream that's supplying the waterfall and swim around in the pools up there (highly recommend it!).⠀⠀ ⠀ Make sure to bring water shoes as there are a bunch of little pebbles in the water and of course a waterproof seal for your phone. There isn't anywhere to change but in or near your car in the car park. Your skin will be super dry afterward so have lotion handy with you. I was told after my visit that there are shower stalls nearby but I didn't notice any when I was there.⠀⠀ ⠀ The best part is that Cascate del Mulino is completely FREE and open 24 hours a day!! #tuscany #italy #europe #hotsprings
