A vacation in Montecatini Terme would not be complete without a trip on the funicular railway up to its hilltop neighbor Montecatini Alto, which overlooks the spa town below. The cable car has been around since the late 1800s so you'll be riding in a piece of history, but the main attraction is the medieval village, where you can visit old religious structures like the Romanesque-style Santa Maria a Ripa and see some of the ancient castle walls that protected the town. After spending a day exploring the charming village, it's just a quick ride back down to your Montecatini Terme vacation rental.
Montecatini Terme is known for its thermal waters so experiencing the wealth of spa opportunities on offer is a must while staying here. Whether you prefer an unwinding soak in a mud bath, a detoxifying steam in the sauna or a relaxing head-to-toe massage, there's a treatment or 2 ready for you to try. Be sure to take some time to admire the Art Nouveau-style architecture of some of the facilities, which are situated around a public green space known as the Thermal Park. In the spas and elsewhere around town, there are also incredible fountain masterpieces to admire and photograph.
Fall is an exciting time to visit Montecatini Terme, as the Tuscany region is abuzz with the grape-harvesting season and the hills are painted in vibrant shades of orange and red with the changing leaves. Temperatures cool into the comfortable 70s come September and October, but the rainy season doesn't set in until November, so book your Montecatini Terme vacation rental for early fall to take advantage of price drops and lower crowds after the summer holiday season has ended. Spring offers the same benefits of pleasant temperatures to enjoy outdoor activities, with the bonus of a blossoming green countryside.
The Tuscany region of Italy is known for its beautiful rolling hills and the area around Montecatini Terme does not disappoint. The nearby Pistoia Mountains are a great place to get back to nature. Go on a long day hike through fir and beech woods, look for forest critters and winged things along the way and take a thrilling walk across a long suspension bridge that hangs over a river. As the day comes to an end, why not find a nearby hill to climb and watch the sky change to shades of pink and orange over the green below?
