ピエンツァのおすすめライド

Church with dome dating back to the 16th century.

Panoramic view of Mount Amiata, a beautiful interplay of colors from the cultivated fields.

A small paradise in the Tuscan hills, in the heart of the Val d'Orcia, just a few minutes from Pienza....

Interesting, but popular (i.e. crowded and busy) small Tuscan hill town. The walled garden is recommended for the interesting layout, and the statue of Lorenzo the Magnificent. Near the top of the steep descent out of town in the eventual direction of Radicofani, a large Restaurant/cafe/deli is to be found. Good place to have a coffee/breakfast, and to stock up on takeaway pizza for the journey.

I took this road north, from Pienza, and it's a magical ride, mostly all downhill with beautiful, Tuscan scenery at every turn. Better than any theme park ride ever conceived!

If the visibility is good you can see Lake Trasimeno.

When the weather is clear you can see Lake Chiusa and Lake Trasimeno.

The Anello dei Cipressi of San Quirico d'Orcia is a suggestive hiking route among the hills of the Val d'Orcia, characterized by dirt roads and breathtaking views of places such as Pienza and Montalcino. Along the way there are the famous cypress trees, the famous Villa dinuna of the scenes of the film The Gladiator and in the distance you can see the Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta. Inside the small village of San Quirico it is possible to visit the Horti Leonini for free, a Renaissance garden created in 1580 by Diomede Leoni. Divided into two parts - a more formal one and a more natural one with a forest of holm oaks - it also houses a statue of Cosimo III de' Medici. San Quirico d'Orcia is a medieval village along the Via Francigena, known for the Collegiata dei Santi Quirico e Giulitta, the Church of San Francesco and its streets rich in history and charm.
