Le Marche: Italy’s hidden gem

Nestled in the heart of Italy, between the azure Adriatic Sea and the rugged Apennine Mountains, lies Le Marche.
This diverse region on the east coast stretches across five provinces: Pesaro Urbino, Ancona, Macerata, Fermo, and Ascoli Piceno.
Here, you'll find a varied landscape of rolling hills, unspoiled nature, charming medieval villages, and lively coastal towns.
The coastline, spanning over 180 kilometres, offers a wonderful mix of wide sandy beaches, secluded coves, and dramatic cliffs, such as those at Monte Conero.
In Le Marche, you'll discover the real Italy: pure, welcoming, and still untouched by mass tourism.

Nature – from sunflower fields to rugged mountains

The landscape of Le Marche subtly changes as you travel further inland.

The region is a paradise for nature lovers.
Think endless vineyards, golden sunflower fields, and forested mountain slopes perfect for hiking or cycling.
In the Apennines, you'll find spectacular nature parks such as Monti Sibillini, where you can hike past crystal-clear mountain lakes and towering peaks.
