Towns and cities to visit
Do your Christmas shopping in Italy's most beautiful cities of art!
In the vicinity of the Orlando in Chianti Winter Glamping you will find some of the most beautiful villages in Italy: San Gimignano, Volterra and Siena, the charming City of the Palio, to name but a few.
We also recommend a visit to Florence, Italy's most renowned city of art, where you will also find a large shopping centre for your Christmas shopping. Finally, let's close with Arezzo, a lovely town where the famous Christmas markets are organised every year: what better occasion to buy presents?
Vineyards and tastings
Taste the red wine of Chianti and sample local products such as truffles and mushrooms.
The road to the Winter Glamping winds through hills covered with vineyards and meadows that are tinged with beautiful hues at this time of year. Dotted around the area are many wine cellars offering wine tastings and samples of highly prized local products such as truffles and mushrooms.
We also recommend a visit to the nearby Castello d'Albola in the characteristic village of Radda in Chianti, where you can indulge in a delicious tasting of typical products, surrounded by a unique setting that will transport you straight back to the Middle Ages.
Nature walks
The unique emotion of walking in the woods.
Not far from the Winter Glamping there are several parks to visit, picturesque nature oases characterised by a great variety of fauna and flora. During your stay you can also treat yourself to unforgettable walks in the forest, spotting, with a bit of luck, some typical specimens that live in these areas, such as deer, stags or squirrels.
Alternatively, you can always stay warm in your accommodation, cuddled by the sounds of nature that will accompany your evenings. We would, of course, advise against entering the forest at night or during heavy snowfall.
