VAL D’ORCIA

Fields of grain, softly moved by the wind, and stunning vineyards.

 

Val d’orcia is a world heritage site by UNESCO, a precious jewel of Tuscany.

Val D’orcia is a valley in Tuscany, in the south of Siena, between Florence and Rome. This is a natural space full of grain fields, a great place for a romantic trip for young or old couples. Couples have the opportunity to escape from the city and enjoy each others company. The naturalistic feel of the city allows couples to connect and fall deeper in love.

The closest airports are in Rome and in Florence, just one hour by train or car. The city is one of the most famous iconic places of Italy, well known for example for the movie “Gladiator”.

If you are visiting Rome or Florence you can’t miss this incredible valley, especially if you are interested in impressing your followers on Instagram.

One of the best experience you can have is riding through the hills on a motorbike. However, for those who want to take in every second of nature, cycling is also an option. The large curves of the roads and the hills make this area very interesting to explore and ride through.

Many photographers use this opportunity to take photos of solitary farms, medieval Italian castles and the geometry of the roads on the hills. The warm light colours, between gold and the amber make this area unmissable for photographers.

The best and famous product of this area is certainly the red wine. After a long day you can enjoy the best red wine of the country. If interested there are many cellars and vineries to visit and where you can have a complete wine tasting experience.
