SIENA AREA: YOUR HANDY GUIDE
The Siena area of Tuscany is perfect for all types of slow travel, such as excursions on foot, horseback or bicycle. You will be unfailingly treated to views of the gorgeous countryside and the strain of travel is hardly noticeable, so engrossed are you in feasting your eyes on the delights spread obligingly around you.

Siena’s countryside is rich in colours and flavours that portray the essence of Tuscany. You will also be charmed by the handicrafts and local cuisine, with its wine, olive oil and traditional cakes. Farms, castles, fortresses, and villages, many of them tourist accommodations, make up the heart of the province of Siena. This is an ancient land full of history, legends and Renaissance elegance.

This is also Chianti territory, and the Sienese part of the territory contains the historical communes of Radda, Gaiole, Castellina, and Castelnuovo Berardenga. Fortresses, villas and farmhouses bear witness to a long history of respect for the land and for nature. Also well worth a visit are the green surroundings of the Farma and Merse rivers and the fortifications in its four principal towns: the castles of Frosini, Tocchi, Crevole and Capraia in the splendid towns of Murlo, Monticiano, Chiusdino and Sovicille respectively.

The Val d’Elsa area attracts visitors for its natural beauty and the local handicraft industry. The region is dotted with charming medieval villages, home to craftsmanship of the highest quality. The more important centres of the Val d’Elsa are Radicondoli, Casole, Monteriggioni, Colle, San Gimignano and Poggibonsi.

The Sienese Crete extends along the valleys of the Arbia, Ombrone and Asso, covering an area that stretches from Siena to Montepulciano and includes the municipalities of Rapolano Terme, Asciano, Monteroni, Buonconvento and San Giovanni d’Asso. The Crete is home to some of the most ancient remains of Sienese heritage, with its towers and castles and the enchanting landscape of the Val d’Orcia. Not for nothing is the Crete a region where poets, writers and mystics have always found inspiration.
