A walk in the Queen's garden
Secret itineraries at Fattoria di Maiano in Fiesole, at the gates of Florence
Fattoria di Maiano is ready to welcome you to the unforgettable landscape of the hills of Fiesole and the characteristic ancient village.
An experience between nature and history led by our environmental guide, with whom you will travel back in the radiant setting of the Tuscan hills, among woods, olive groves and spectacular views of Florence from the Belvedere terrace. You will explore the Queen's Park, created by Sir John Temple Leader and inaugurated by Queen Victoria of England, and the ancient stonemasons' streets.
You will pass monumental caves and rock faces. From the Artists' Garden, you will go up towards the Cava della Principessa Elisabetta Corsini and the magnificent Belvedere Terrace, overlooking Florence, the perfect place for a break. Our guide will offer you a delicious snack before continuing towards Poggio della Lecceta. Another path will allow you to reconnect to the Mensola torrent, visit the Sorgente della Grotta and descend towards the Cava del Fossato and the Sorgente della Regina Vittoria.
