Relaxing in natural thermal pools in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma

Tuscany is synonymous with culture, art, literature. Its towns are so beautiful as to leave you breathless. Its excellent products are well-known and loved worldwide. Tuscany is also synonymous with nature, hilly landscapes and winding roads, cutting through vineyards and medieval villages.

The region hosts seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, such as Florence and Siena historic centers, Pienza - the so-called “ideal Renaissance town” -  San Gimignano, with its towers, Pisa and its Piazza del Duomo (Square of Miracles), the Val d'Orcia and the Medici villas and gardens. You can seize this opportunity to make a unique, authentic experience of Italy, whose memory you are going to cherish.

 

Have you ever thought of going to a spa in Tuscany? To begin with, did you know that there are free thermal baths as well over there? In Saturnia you can relax in natural, hot water pools in a unique environment, while at Cascate del Mulino (Mill Falls) you may think you are at a spa, but, instead, you find yourself in a series of natural pools of thermal spring water flowing next to a former mill, wherefrom they take their name. A charming place, to say the least, with a beautiful view over the Tuscan Maremma. What is unique about “Cascatelle del Molino” (Mill Cascades) – as they are called by the local residents - is their free entrance twenty four hours a day, all the year round. A fantastic opportunity to enjoy the benefits of natural hot springs even on a cold winter day, or to let yourself be cuddled by warmth, in a natural water pool under the stars.

 

After relaxing, discover the surroundings and take the opportunity to stroll through the historic center of Saturnia, a surprising town, flaunting gems such as St. Mary Magdalene’s church, the Aldobrandeschi Fortress and the town walls.
