  • The Imperial Ascent: We begin at Piazza Ferrucci. Our journey starts under the shade of elegant 19th-century tree-lined avenues, climbing toward the summit as the horizon begins to unfold (pass by)
  • Piazzale Michelangelo
    • Piazzale Michelangelo (The Terrace of the World): We reach the city's most famous landmark. Here, Florence lies at your feet: a 360° panoramic view where Brunelleschi’s Duomo and the Ponte Vecchio feel close enough to touch.
  • Fontane delle Rampe del Poggi
    • The Descent of the Waters: We head down the spectacular Poggi Ramps. A dreamlike descent through waterfalls, hidden grottoes, and monumental stone fountains that look like a scene from a classic film.
  • • Medieval Walls and Porta San Miniato: At the foot of the hill, we skirt the imposing 14th-century Medieval Wall. We will pause to admire the majesty of Porta San Miniato, a historical treasure viewed from the outside to remain within the tranquility of the city’s green belt. (pass by)
  • • Grove Path The Secret Olive: From the gate, we begin a second ascent along a rustic path surrounded by olive trees. This is an oasis of silence and fresh air that transports you to the Tuscan countryside in just a few minutes. (pass by)
  • Basilica San Miniato al Monte
    • San Miniato al Monte (The Crown Jewel): Your effort is rewarded upon reaching this thousand-year-old Abbey. With its white and green marble facade and views even higher than those of the Piazzale, it is the most spiritual and fascinating place in all of Florence.
  • • The Golden Return: We descend gently, enjoying the evening light, to close this unforgettable circuit back at Piazza Ferrucci. (pass by)
