Kayaking in the Nature Reserve of Ponte a Buriano and Penna

Paddling among protected nature, history and silence

Technical info

Discover the quieter, more authentic soul of the Arno River with a kayaking excursion in the Ponte a Buriano and Penna Nature Reserve, just a few kilometers from Arezzo. A relaxing experience accessible to all, immersed in a protected river environment where calm stretches of water, tree-lined banks, wildlife and historic monuments such as the iconic medieval bridge portrayed by Leonardo da Vinci in the Mona Lisa alternate.

This outing is perfect for those who want to experience nature in an active but peaceful way. The kayak allows you to move independently on placid waters, with the possibility of spotting herons, cormorants, kingfishers and-with a little luck-even deer or other animals on the shore. The landscape within the reserve is striking, quiet and surprisingly wild, just minutes from the city.
