Dante's Ways, the only Italian destination among Lonely Planet's Best in Travel 2021


Lonely Planet has chosen Dante's Ways as the only Italian destination among Best in Travel 2021. A slow itinerary in the footsteps of the Supreme Poet.

Among the Best in Travel 2021, Lonely Planet chooses as the only Italian destination the Vie di Dante: a route dedicated to the places that Sommo Poeta (this year marks the 700th anniversary of his death) passed through during his exile between Tuscany and Romagna. Dante’s Ways have been noted in the famous guidebook as a model of slow tourism in the sustainability category.

An itinerary between art and culture, crafts, nature and food and wine that counts, among the most significant stops, the Baptistery of San Giovanni in Florence and Dante’s Tomb in Ravenna, but also the thirty-three Dante tombstones in the Medieval Quarter of Florence, trekking to the Hermitage of Gamogna (in the territory of Marradi), the Tanaccia Cave in the Chalk Vein of Brisighella and Palazzo Milzetti in Faenza.



A slow tourism experience, to be made by bike, on foot or by train, along the ancient Faenza-Florence railway route, discovering ancient palaces, Romanesque parish churches, small villages, and artisan workshops.

It is an important opportunity for Dante’s Routes: in fact, Best in Travel has a reach of two billion people, including 18 million on the guide’s Italian channels. An opportunity on which a web promotion campaign will be designed for the many initiatives between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany on the occasion of Dante’s 700th anniversary, throughout 2021, from the extraordinary art exhibitions in Ravenna and Forlì to the Days dedicated to the myth of Paolo and Francesca in Rimini.
