Trekking in Pienza in the footsteps of Scott's "Gladiator"
Excursion to the most iconic location in Val D'Orcia
The fascinating area of Vald'Orcia (located in the province of Siena) in addition to giving us breathtaking landscapes and unique cities of art, has been the natural "set" for numerous film productions.
Starting from Pienza (the ideal city of the Renaissance) together with the guide we will reach the location of the famous Ridley Scott film, at the point where Russel Crowe walked among the "Elysian fields" surrounded by ears of wheat and rolling hills.
It is an easy 9 kilometers route accessible to everyone, with gentle slopes. An unmissable stop will be the visit to the Vitaleta Chapel, an iconic living postcard of splendid Tuscany.
The price may vary based on the number of tour participants.
