Overview

Get ready to be thrilled! Join me on a 6km trek that will depart from the the city of Sovana (the most important Etruscan city in the area) to look for a series of late Etruscan tombs hidden and unknown to most. These tombs were often so many to form a real city which is why they are known as Necropolis. These tombs and their Vie Cave are in less crowded areas, but their beauty and charm are second to none. Be ready to witness the magnificence of a Via Cava, a canyon carved by human hands. Feel the vibes when you dive in it, and then try to imagine the tremendous effort made by the Etruscan people to dig these man-made canyons. Upon return there is the possibility to have a wine tasting from local winery. NOTE: there is a small creek crossing, nothing major but waterproof shoes are highly recommended. ATTENTION: the price of the experience does not include the tasting that can be paid on site to the owner.
