Surely, somebody told you that Giglio Island is small. Don’t be fooled: the pearl of the Tyrrhenian Sea is crossed by 31 trails of varying length and difficulty. Each of them will give you a unique setting: barren hills, woods, fields and vineyards, lighthouses, cliffs overlooking the sea, small coves along the coast.
