It is dotted with small medieval villages, Romanesque churches, and scenic country roads that tell the story of a land still deeply connected to its rural and cultural roots. From a logistical standpoint, the location of the Lucchese hills is exceptionally strategic for those who wish to live or vacation in Tuscany. The city of Lucca, with its intact historic center and renowned Renaissance walls, is just a ten-minute drive away. Pisa, with its international airport, is about thirty minutes away, making travel to and from abroad very convenient. Florence can be reached in under an hour, while the Versilia coast, with its famous seaside towns such as Forte dei Marmi and Viareggio, is about forty minutes away. The mountainous areas of the Garfagnana and the Apennines are also easily accessible for those who enjoy hiking and unspoiled nature. This central position makes the Lucchese hills an ideal base for exploring the entire region, whether you're looking for an exclusive residence or aiming to invest in the high-end vacation rental market.
