A circular walk from Castiglioncello via Vedriano and Vigneta
Using a delightful assortment of mule tracks, field paths, and quiet lanes, this walk links together several small villages and hamlets. The route starts and finishes in the perfectly perched hilltop settlement of Castiglioncello. From there you will visit Padula, Vedriano, Palazzo Groppolo, Pastena and, after crossing the idyllic medieval bridge in the woods, Vigneta. Like many of our walks, this one will take you along part of the Via del Volto Santo.
