After lunch, we’ll head to the historic Montecatini Funicular, a magical railway that feels like stepping straight into another era. Here, you’ll find the ancient red trains, a true trip back in time, ready to carry you up to Montecatini Alto, the city’s picturesque upper village — and the ride itself is part of the magic. The experience is truly one of a kind. As the twin trains travel up and down, they meet at the midpoint in what looks like a friendly “kiss” amid the lush hillsides. Kids absolutely love this moment — it’s fun, unexpected, and makes the journey even more special. Once at the top, get ready for breathtaking panoramic views over the Valdinievole, where rolling hills and endless landscapes create a picture-perfect scene. Winter Closure: The funicular is closed from November 2nd to December 25th for seasonal maintenance and reopens on December 26th. If you’re traveling outside these dates, don’t miss this enchanting ride — it’s a highlight for both adults and children!

Montecatini Alto

30min

The funicular will whisk you up to Montecatini Alto, a charming medieval village perched gracefully above the “new” town of Montecatini Terme. As the original heart of the area, Montecatini Alto is brimming with history, culture, and stories of illustrious figures who once wandered its streets. This timeless village, one of the oldest in the Valdinievole, invites you to get lost in its winding cobblestone alleys, admire its historic landmarks, and soak up its truly enchanting atmosphere. From its hilltop perch, you’ll be treated to breathtaking panoramic views across the Nievole Valley, stretching all the way to the city of Lucca — a vista that’s nothing short of unforgettable. After soaking in the magic of Montecatini Alto, we’ll make our way back to your starting point, with the journey scheduled to conclude at 5:00 PM.
