Get in touch with the wild spirit of the Maremma coast

The Coastal Park of Sterpaia is a beautiful forest with tameric, pitosphoric and eucalyptic. It extends for 296 hectares, 17 of which are sandy (it consists of about 10 km of coast), 124 hectares of dunes, 155 hectares of woods and cultivated landscape.

Three hundred acres that the municipality of Piombino has saved from abusive construction, constitute a remarkable environmental system made of dunes, wetlands, agricultural clearings, wooded areas and a rare dense coastal forest located between Piombino and Riotorto. The botanical charactteristic lies in the monumental dimensions achieved by some centuries-old oaks.
