Wool, Nature & Ecoprint in the Heart of the Sibillini
A Marche tour into ancient crafts, natural colors, and mountain beauty
Step back in time and discover the ancient art of wool-making and natural dyeing in the enchanting setting of the Monti Sibillini. This Marche tour is designed for those who want to reconnect with tradition, creativity, and nature through a truly hands-on experience.
The adventure begins with a gentle walk through unspoiled countryside, breathing in the clean mountain air as you approach a hidden gem: a living wool museum, run by a family who has lovingly preserved ancient weaving traditions for generations.
Learning traditional wool techniques and creating my own eco-printed textile in the middle of nature was unforgettable. A peaceful, hands-on experience I’ll never forget.

Here, you’ll explore a functioning historical textile workshop filled with 100-year-old tools: spinning wheels, carding machines, looms, and more. Everything still works—and you’ll get to try it with your own hands.
Choose your experience:
Basket Weaving Workshop
