Tuscan Hill Town Drive 9/25/2022

We begin our drive on a foggy morning to discover the valley around the Orcia River. It is called Val d’Orcia. We come upon a castle from the 1300’s called Castelluccio.

The first city we come to is Bagno Vignoni. This city has natural thermal water and the main piazza has a large pool. There were many hikers and bikers here as it is on a major hiking route.

Our next stop is Castiglione d’Orcia, a lovely little town way up on a hill.

We drive on to San Quirico d’Orcia. This is another lovely medieval city with ancient city walls.

We leave San Quirico and somehow take a wrong turn and end up in Buonconvento.

We enjoyed touring these lovely ancient medieval hill towns. Each unique in their own way.
