«Swing the World» is a project born with the aim of entertaining people in a creative way, stimulating them to spend time outside the walls of their homes, having fun outdoors.

Elisa and Fabio, the founders of Swing the World, want to make known to the world the hidden, breathtaking and Instagrammable corners of the territory. All with an eye for ecology. Most of the materials for the creation of the «Swing the World» swings are from the region and are chosen and selected to make them integrate in the best way with the surrounding environment, supporting nature. Sit back, breathe in the fresh air and let your emotions carry you away.
