For most people, Monte Argentario means
sea, beaches, fun and relaxation. Peaceful
and solitary it is not, especially in the height
of the summer season. The “other side” of
Monte Argentario is not as well known but
it is just as beautiful. Here, in the midst of
the hills covered with flowers and herbs,
you will find silence and tranquillity. A hike
or gentle walk through a world waiting to
be discovered – the promontory of Monte
Argentario – will give you the space and
freedom to quickly forget the stresses and
strains of everyday life.
TREKKING
The descent to Torre Ciana
Length of journey: 1 1/4 hours, round trip
Difficulty: medium, some parts of the path
are steep and hidden by vegetation.
After the main gate of Il Pellicano turn right,
go up and then turn left. The unpaved road
that goes to the sea is on the left. Follow it.
After about a 15-minute walk, you come to a
small path on your left with a mark painted
in red. In front of you, you can see the island
of Giannutri and a little further to the left
is the island of Giglio. Continue following
the path until you reach the Sienese watch
tower, Torre Ciana, restructured by the
Spanish but now sadly a ruin.
From Il Pellicano to Porto Ercole
Length of journey: 45 minutes, 5 Km.
You can reach the closest village of Porto
Ercole, walking directly from Il Pellicano.
It’s a nice and easy walk with a wonderful
landscape
CYCLING
39 km Panoramic road
In Argentario, for those who enjoy mountain
biking, are very fit and not faint hearted,
there is the stunning 39 km panoramic road
around the peninsula, 4 km of which are on
a rough track with a number of potholes! It
is well worth the effort, though, as the views
are quite spectacular.
Feniglia
For those who prefer gentler bicycling, lovely
rides can be had on the flat sun baked earth
roads in the shade of the Mediterranean
pines on the Feniglia outside Porto Ercole.
No cars are allowed on the Feniglia and
you can bicycle all the way to Ansedonia, a
distance of 8 km. Bicycles can be hired at
the start of the Feniglia.

EXCURSIONS
3.1 Wineries, typical and natural products of Maremma
3.1 Wineries, typical and natural products of Maremma
You are in Maremma , a region where
ancient traditions have survived and
Tuscan culture is preserved.
If you are a wine lover you have to put
your stay in Tuscany to use and spend a
day in the most charming wineries of the
area.
We have selected four wineries for
you: Fattoria Le Mortelle, Tenuta di
Monteverro, Rocca di Frassinello and
Fattoria Le Pupille.
Our driver can take you there with one of
our Mercedes cars for a full immersion in
the taste of Maremma.
Fattoria Le Mortelle 1
The latest born from the Antinori’s family,
Le Mortelle opens to the public for tours
and tastings. From the vineyard to the
wine: the farm has been designed with the
utmost respect for environment. The wine
cellar, a symbol of organic architecture,
promotes harmony between humans and
environment.
A structure designed to accompany the
grapes from its genesis to the individual
steps: fermentation, aging, and bottling,
in a “vertical” way 2 . It is possible to have
a wine tasting either in the romantic VIP
dining room in the lowest floor of the
cave or upstairs, with a wonderful view of
the vineyard.
Tenuta di Monteverro 3
(Capalbio – 30 minutes by car)
In the southern part of Maremma, at the
foot of the village of Capalbio, lies Monteverro, a small region renowned for its
authenticity, tradition and its proximity to
the sea. The idea of running the estate
of Monteverro with the goal of building a
winery, stems from an unbridled enthusiasm for outstanding wine.
The result is nowadays some of the best
and most exceptional wines in the world.
It is thanks to the great exposure to the
sun, to the sea breeze and the red clay
soil with its large rocks that you can taste
a great Chardonnay or Vermentino.

3.1 Wineries, typical and natural products of Maremma
Rocca di Frassinello 1 is a great international project conceived with the partnership of Les Domaines Baron de Rothschild-Lafite: 500 hectares, 80 already
cultivated with vines, 50% Sangiovese
and 50% Cabernet, Merlot, Petit Verdot,
Shiraz, to produce three wines in what can
be considered as a meeting of the best of
Italy and France. To state the international
level of the company Rocca di Frassinello,
the project of the wine cellar was signed
by the famous architect Renzo Piano 2 :
designer, among others, of the Baubourg
in Paris, the head-office of the New York
Times, the Morgan Library, and the Auditorium of music in Rome. On the highest
hill of the amphitheatre of Rocca of Frassinello, in front of the village of Giuncarico,
in the municipal district of Gavorrano, the
architect Piano, who has been a producer
of Dolcetto and loves wine as much as the
pure lines of architecture, has conceived a
wine cellar 3 of an astonishing simplicity
with a revolutionary division of the spaces
and a spasmodic care to the process of
vinification which is done starting from the
fall of the grape.

3.1 Wineries, typical and natural products of Maremma
If you want to spend a couple of hours in
the hilly Maremma, you have to visit and
taste the wine of Fattoria Le Pupille in
Istia d’Ombrone, 50 Km from Il Pellicano
1 2.
Fattoria Le Pupille is where Elisabetta
Geppetti has beeen making her wines
since 1985. To make wines at Fattoria
Le Pupille is to cultivate with respect,
love and patience the seventy hectares
of vineyards 3 . The team cares for every
day. There are expert hands ready at
exactly the right moment to pick the
grapes and to bring them into the cellar
4 to be transformed into five wines with
distinct characters, but the same life-line:
the classic Morellino di Scansano and the
Morellino di Scansano Riserva Poggio
Valente, the CRU Saffredi and the whites
Poggio Argentato and the sweet SolAlto.

some of these beaches can only be
accessed by boat!

They are also quite diverse ranging from
the beautiful sandy crescent of L’Acqua

Go for a tour with one of our charter

Giglio Porto is little and picturesque,
a very lively part of the island with its
narrow streets, nice little shops, bars and
restaurants with terraces over the sea
famous for the typical fresh fish.
2 Giglio Castello is situated at the top of
the island, 405 meters above the sea level.
It’s formed by a fortified village, with an
access gate and completely surrounded
by large-built walls from which you can
admire a very beautiful seascape. In the
village nothing seems to have changed
throughout the centuries: narrow streets,
little places and the ancient church give
the feeling to go back in time in an unreal
atmosphere.
3 Giglio Campese is the most modern part
of the island and it is currently a tourist
village, located at the back of the large red
ground beach. This beach is “defended” by
the big rock at the southern end and by the
“Medicea” Tower up north.

Don’t miss the marvellous sunset you

3.4 Capalbio and the Tarot Garden

Capalbio 1 is a Medieval village, 30 minutes from Il Pellicano by car. It is located on a
hill surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation on the farthest point of the Tuscan
Maremma, immersed in an important natural environment. The historic center with its
crenulated profile attracts attention from
far away and is still surrounded by a double
wall with walkways on different levels which
today may still be walked upon. The village
is dominated by the massive Aldobrandesca
Fortress at its highest point.
2
After lunch you can visit the Tarot Garden
2 3 . Open every afternoon from 2:30 to
7:30 PM, it is 5 Km from Capalbio.
Between 1979 and 1996, the French
artist Niki De Saint Phalle created a work
that can be considered as the supreme
achievement of her artistic career, in the
heart of the Maremma region of Tuscany.
It consists of a series of huge sculptures,
between twelve and fifteen metres in
height, depicting the twenty-two Greater
Arcana featured in the original pack
3
of tarot cards. The inspiration for this
esoteric garden was undoubtedly the
beautiful Güell Park designed by Antoni
Gaudì in Barcelona, since there are
various clear analogies between Niki
De Saint Phalle’s work and that of the
Spanish artist, not only in the choice of
materials used but also because of the
extremely symbolic nature of both.

3.5 Pitigliano and surroundings
1
A very interesting excursion is the visit of
the famous tufa cities, Pitigliano, Sovana
and Sorano, just 50 minutes from Il Pellicano by car.
The first stage will be Pitigliano 1 ,
characteristic Etruscan and Medieval village, which rises along the crest of a tuffaceous promontory of a wild beauty; its
houses seem to grow directly from the tufa.
Pitigliano seems to have stepped out of a
fairytale. The village is also known as “the
little Jerusalem” because of its settlement
of a thriving Jewish Community: testimony of this glorious past is the Synagogue
and the museum of the Little Jerusalem.
The Etruscan presence can be traced on
2
the “Vie Cave system” 2 a system of deep
trenches adorned with carved inscriptions, which linked religious sites and a
necropolis.
Not far is Sovana, authentic jewel of
the Fiora hills, where time seems to
be unreal. Sovana is the main entrance
of the “archeological park of the tufa
city” where we can find the famous Ildebranda Tomb 2 which, together with different typologies of tombs, make Sovana
a unique place with a high concentration
of Etruscan relieves. This area is also famous for the production of wine. The tufa
rock gives a particular flavour to the wine.
3
Near Sovana there is a very nice winery
called Sassotondo where we can organize wine tastings. Sassotondo has an old
cellar completely dug into the ground in
a “tufo” cliff on the farmland. The barrels
are placed in the last room, separated
from the rest of the cellar by a long corridor, 14 meters below the ground and 30
from the entrance door ,enjoying the ideal
conditions of humidity and temperature
provided by the natural underground environment. The vineyards today total 10
hectares about 8 of which are red varieties (at the present mostly ciliegiolo, sangiovese and merlot), and two are white
ones (trebbiano, greco, sauvignon).
3.5 Pitigliano and surroundings

Only a few minutes away, you can reach
Sorano 1 with its alleys, its archaeological
areas (very suggestive agglomerate of
Vitozza, rocks and grottoes dwelt since
medieval time until the begin of the 20th
Century) and the monumental complex
of the Orsini Fortress.
Not far from the tufa towns there is
Saturnia 2 3 , known throughout the
world for its natural spring waters.
In fact, near the Medieval town, the
copious sulphuric water (800 litres a
second) gushes out at 37° and gives
spontaneous life to a suggestive
waterfall which forms a series of natural
pools, carved in the rock in which
every year thousands of people bathe;
Saturnia today is a town which, while
maintaining its historical aspect, has
given life to a very active tourism, thanks
to the thermal complex and the many
structures which have developed around
it.
