Mid-August in Chianti

Want to escape the chaos of August? Yes, but without sacrificing beauty. Ferragosto in Chianti with WeHike means three days of hiking through woods and hills in the Terre del Gallo Nero, swimming and rafting in the crystal-clear waters of the Elsa River, immersing yourself in local history, and savoring authentic flavors that come together as if by magic, in a region that in summer is cloaked in intense, fragrant greenery. A group weekend with a base-camp format, all about sunshine, good wine, relaxation, and genuine camaraderie: a true alternative to the usual August destinations, for those who want to experience the height of summer in a different, slower, more authentic way. There’s plenty of time for music and nightclubs all winter long.
