Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Lorenzo, an environmental hiking guide, and my base is Tuscany — mainly the provinces of Siena and Grosseto. My strong point is archaeological, historical and naturalistic trekking: walking through a landscape that has been built, inhabited and abandoned several times over, and knowing how to read the traces. I run day treks and multi-day ones. I'm just as happy working outside Italy — trekking in the Canaries, for example — because those comparisons matter: they help you understand Tuscany better too. Walk with me and you'll walk, and understand where you're walking. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
