You can enjoy spending some time horse riding on the hills along the "pianelli" of olive groves, in the Cortona countryside.
• Beach gradient is gradual for a short distance. There is a dock. Tirrenum and Adriatic seas are three hours away by car.Cortona is not on the Tuscan Coast, but in the center of the peninsula.
