North to the border with Tuscany
If you drive northwards, you have more options for a smoother camping experience, but better skip MONTALTO DI CASTRO, quiet, but not a very exciting hill town, known in Italy thanks to the huge, an incomplete nuclear power plant. The power plant became the cause celebre of the newly formed Green Party, and in connection with its construction, the 1987 r. referendum, in which the population has spoken out against the nuclear energy program. After lengthy government machinations, the decision was made, that the power plant will use crude oil or natural gas (at enormous costs of adaptation). If you really want to spend the night in the mysterious shadow of nuclear reactors, There are campsites in Montalto Marina and Pescia Romana by the sea.
Located approx 11 km inland VULCI is another Etruscan monument, but nevertheless ,that the number of graves there is estimated at 15 000, there is hardly anything to see. Many mounds were looted and left to the prey of the elements, but there is still nowhere to go. To the north of the cemetery there is Ponte d'Abbadia, a single-span Romano-Etruscan bridge suspended over a beautiful basin. Nearby, there is an abbey with a small collection of finds from the local necropolis.
The best and quietest beaches on this coast are in CHIARONE. The environmental commission said, that it is the first stretch of sea coast north of Rome, where the water is not polluted. The strip of sand continues all the way to the Argentario Peninsula, with the lagoon in Burano. There are many places in the dunes, where you can camp. As summer goes by, it gets more and more crowded on the shore, but in a sea with a shelf bottom it is perfect for swimming, and a secluded stretch of beach can be found every few minutes. Several trains to Grosseto stop nearby (90 minutes from Rome). There is a shop and several bars near the station. You can walk to the beach from the station 15 minutes, and at the end of the road there is of course a bar and a campsite.
If you have a car, pojedź z Chiarone do D Tarot Garden, that is, the Tarot Garden, where the most bizarre and increasingly famous works of contemporary art in Italy are gathered. It is a group of monumental sculptures by Niki de Saint Phalle, best known for his Parisian "Fontaine Stravinsky" (made together with Jean Tinguely). Sculptures, which he has been creating for ten years, it's Gaudi plus sheer joy; kids love them, and adults admire; it is definitely worth making a detour, to see them. Covered with mirrors, bright and colorful works can be seen all the way from via Aurelia; drive 5 km by road from Chiarone to Pescia Fiorentina. The sculptures are so far only an unofficial attraction and the area is open to the public only on summer weekends.
