Hiking
From here, the view sweeps down over the spectacular Balze del Valdarno, spires of clay and sand sculpted by time after an ancient prehistoric lake dried up. Their striking shapes create a unique landscape, contrasting with the surrounding vineyards and green hills.
A panorama so evocative that it inspired Leonardo da Vinci, who depicted these forms in the background of works such as the Mona Lisa and the Madonna of the Yarnwinder.

Beautiful walk. Please note: due to the construction of a house, the end of the tour is slightly different.
