Meet at the Siena train station (in front of pharmacy) at 9:00am. Give your mind a peaceful rest from the noise of the crowded towns and follow your expert guide on a pleasant walk along the Via Francigena, an ancient pilgrim's route that became the main artery to reach Rome throughout the Middle Ages. This route - a spiritual pilgrimage as well as a wealthy trade route - enjoyed today by pilgrims and hikers alike enable you to experience the beauty of the Tuscan countryside and the glory of its medieval past, still present in its wonderfully preserved castles and villages. Walk through forests and fields, vineyards and olive groves from Siena to the imposing fortress of Monteriggioni, a medieval town built by the Sienese as a bastion of defense in their wars against Florence.
In Monteriggioni you will enjoy a guided tasting of local organic wines before enjoying leisure time to explore the town. You will be given a bus ticket to return to Siena at your own leisure (bus stop is nearby with multiple return options). Suitable for anyone in good physical condition, comfortable clothing and shoes are highly recommended.
