What could be better than a walk in nature to regenerate the spirit and the body? Even if only for a day, unplugging helps to regain serenity and physical and mental well-being. Trekking is suitable for everyone: it can be practised even without any particular athletic training and is ideal for relaxing and keeping fit.
The green hills of Chianti with their gentle landscapes and unspoilt nature offer itineraries of rare beauty: in this context, Villa Curina Resort offers its guests beautiful walks within its property, among vineyards and olive groves, through the woods and to discover the territory and its history. We also collaborate with expert guides and environmental hikers who can offer customised tours and tailor-made experiences for all nature lovers!
The "Ecomaratona del Chianti" is characterised within the running scene by the beauty and nature of the routes, paths and white roads, the organised events, dinner and lunch for athletes, and free organised visits to villas, castles and other tourist attractions and resources.
The event consists of four competitive running events: Ecomarathon 42 KM, Chianti ClassicoTrail 21 KM, Trail del Luca 13 KM and Relay Ecomarathon del Chianti 5x1200 MT.
All enriched by other non-competitive distances (Eco-walk 10 KM, Strolling through cellars 8 KM and Nordic Walking 10 KM) and many side events for an unforgettable weekend.
Villa Curina is located on the permanent route of the Eroica.
The Eroica is inspired by classic cycling, from the black-and-white cycling recounted in the newspapers of the early 1900s to the duel between Bartali and Coppi to more recent times when, however, cages were still used on the pedals and gear levers on the down tube. By convention, the year 1987 was chosen as the borderline year between classic and modern cycling.
The world-famous Palio di Siena is one of the most important folkloristic events in Italy, attracting tourists on a national and international level.
In the marvellous Piazza del Campo, unique in the world, ten of the city's seventeen contrade compete against each other.
A great spectacle of unchanged charm over the years, of great emotional impact, that cannot be easily forgotten by those fortunate enough to be able to witness it.
