From Val di Cornia to Elba: villages, archaeological parks, coastline and Maremma flavours.
Piombino is the perfect gateway to explore the Tuscan coast between archaeology and sea. Val di Cornia is crossed by the Val di Cornia Parks system (UNESCO Global Geopark), with routes through medieval villages, Etruscan sites and trails overlooking the coast.
Within a short drive you reach the Gulf of Baratti and the Baratti and Populonia Archaeological Park — the only Etruscan city built on the sea — or Piombino harbour for ferries to Elba. Seasonal markets, Costa degli Etruschi wineries and seafood cuisine fill your days away from the agricamping.
The sections below cover villages and parks, beaches and islands, food and evenings out, and relaxation between thermal spas and nature.
