Florence National Parks

To the south of Florence, there is the Berignone Nature Reserve, a haven for many wild animals, and the Natural Reserve of Castelvecchio, a hiking destination. Keep heading south, from Florence to Rome , and you will encounter Lake Trasimeno Regional Park, a place for both land and water activities. 

Make a southwest detour with your campervan or RV and visit Centro Laghi Park and Montioni Natural Park. Here, you can not only do trailing and trekking, but you can also enjoy didactic activities, guided visits, and workshops on experimental archaeology.

If you drive your campervan or RV up north, in the direction of Milan , stop by the Contrafforte Pilocnico Natural Reserve and Vena del Gesso Romagnola Park, where you can hike, trail, and cycle. To the northwest, there is a National Park called Tuscan-Emilian Apennine. Here, the most adventurous can do hand-gliding and paragliding. If you prefer to stay on the ground, you can bike and ski. It's not uncommon for this park to host food festivals.

Florence Coastline, Lakes, and Rivers

Florence doesn't have a direct coastline, but there are nearby beaches to visit in your campervan when you drive west in the direction of Livorno and Viareggio, such as Quercianella beach, Romito beach, Golfo di Baratti, and Le Rocchette beach.

Take your campervan or RV rental around the Tuscany area and explore the several streams where you can do water activities. If you're a beginner in rafting, get on the Sieve river, very close to Florence, and enjoy a whitewater adventure down to the Mugello area.

Go northwest in the direction of Bagni di Lucca to do some river trekking by the Cocciglia canyon. Keep driving your campervan or RV west of Cocciglia (still close to Bagni di Lucca) to find plenty of water activities that will make adrenaline sprint through your body. 

The Lima river flows down the mountains, providing an incredible experience for rafting and kayaking fans. You can also do water trekking, stand-up paddling, and even diving. Your campervan rental adventure is full of fun options when you start your road trip from Florence.
