Weekend on Tuscan Via Francigena, from Siena to Buonconvento
Are you ready to live an unforgettable experience and become the protagonists of a journey through the treasures of Tuscany?
Do you want to immerse yourself in a picturesque setting and experience the best of the Via Francigena in just three days?
During the initial phase of this adventure, you will traverse the renowned "white roads" of Siena, travelling long distances through the Val d'Arbia and Val d'Orcia, both iconic elements of the Tuscan landscape.
Your journey begins in Siena, where you cannot miss local delicacies such as Pici or Panforte. From there, you will follow a timeless route through the Tuscan countryside. Along the way, you will encounter many attractions, including the lunar terrain of the Crete Senesi, fortified villages and endless green hills.
The expedition concludes by strolling through the quiet streets of Buonconvento, the gateway to the Val d'Orcia.
Consider extending your stay for an additional night in this charming village if you want to find out why its name translates to "happy and fortunate place."
