Hiking in Tuscany
My love for nature led me to become an official Tuscan Trekker in April 2021. Having grown up in the countryside, I have always felt a deep connection to the land. Over time, I’ve explored countless trekking paths, becoming well-versed in the local flora, fauna, geology, and botany.
I have hiked through Tuscany’s stunning national parks alongside experienced guides, testing different itineraries across our unspoiled countryside—routes that I would now love to share with you. Although my schedule is quite full as a Siena tour guide and manager of Villa Santa Chiara, I would be delighted to plan a hiking experience tailored to your interests.
All tours are custom-designed to suit your pace and preferences. Whether you’d like a gentle walk in the immediate surroundings of Siena, a moderate countryside stroll, or a full-day trek across rolling Tuscan hills, the choice is yours.
One thing I can guarantee? Breathtaking views and a chance to experience the most authentic and unique landscapes of Siena and Tuscany.
Project Le Caldanelle
In our property, Le Caldanelle not far from Siena, an archaeologist group called Odysseus has been excavating the medieval site since 2018. Le Caldanelle was a thermal stop; according to the documents from the State Archive in Siena, Pope Pius II (Enea Silvio Piccolomini, the famous humanist) was one of the customers! The archaeologists have brought to light part of the ancient city walls and gate, a number of coins and ceramics, and what looks like the thermal baths themselves. Let’s go and take a look! Custom pricing is based on the length of the visit and the number of participants.
