Tuscan Landscapes

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004, the Val d’Orcia is a vast and evocative area in southern Tuscany, known for its rolling hills, iconic cypress trees, vineyards, olive groves, woodlands, and golden fields. The famous rows of cypresses - symbols of Tuscany and stars of its most iconic postcards - line white country roads and frame dreamlike views. This picture-perfect landscape is home to castles, medieval villages, rustic farmhouses, and prestigious wineries. Unmissable stops include: Buonconvento, Montalcino - renowned for its Brunello wine- the Abbey of Sant’Antimo, San Quirico d’Orcia, the thermal springs of Bagni San Filippo and Bagno Vignoni, the Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta, and the enchanting village of Pienza. Val d’Orcia is a perfect blend of natural beauty and historical legacy.

A lunar landscape in the heart of Tuscany: the Crete Senesi are known for their rolling clay hills, gullies, and badlands, which create a surreal and one-of-a-kind panorama. Located southeast of Siena, the area includes the towns of Asciano, Monteroni d'Arbia, Rapolano Terme, and San Giovanni d'Asso. The color of the clay-rich soil shifts with the seasons, producing views that seem painted by hand. This area is also famous for its prized white truffle, traditional products, and thermal baths. A perfect destination for those in search of authenticity and tranquility - where nature and tradition live in perfect harmony.

The Maremma Regional Park is a protected natural area and one of the most fascinating destinations in the province of Grosseto - ideal for those looking to reconnect with the unspoiled nature of the Tyrrhenian coast. Just a short distance from La Bagnaia, the park stretches over about 30 km of coastline and 8,900 hectares of extraordinary biodiversity. Sand dunes, Mediterranean scrub, holm oak woods, pine forests, wetlands, and flatlands are home to countless plant and animal species. There are many ways to enjoy the park: from relaxing walks to more active adventures by bike, horseback, or canoe - even at dawn or sunset. And for those who love to dream, there are also night tours under the stars.
