Val d`Orcia


San Quirico d`Orcia
Val d`Orcia is a valley stretching south of Siena, along the Orcia river - hence the name. With its gorgeous landscape made of gentle hills covered with olive groves, vineyards and forests, Val d`Orcia is the ideal destination for those who want to relax hiking in the "Parco Naturale, Artistico e Culturale della Val d`Orcia" (Natural, Artistic and Cultural Park of Val d`Orcia), which UNESCO declared World Human Heritage in 2004.

Val d`Orcia is also synonym with art and culture: the area is scattered with many Medieval hamlets and towns rich in history and interesting monuments, such as Pienza and Montalcino, just to mention the most famous ones.

Those who prefer healthy holidays can visit the spas in Bagno Vignoni and Bagni San Filippo. And at the end of the day, a dinner with Val d`Orcia specialities, such as "pici" (a particular type of fresh pasta), pecorino cheese and Brunello di Montalcino, is a must.

Val d`Orcia - Valley in the province of Siena


Val d`Orcia
Val d`Orcia is a vast valley in the province of Siena, situated in southern Tuscany, between Valdichiana, Crete senesi and Mount Amiata. Its name comes from the river that flows through it, the Orcia river, a tributary of the Ombrone river, the most important waterway in southern Tuscany. This charming valley is divided into the municipalities of Castiglione d`Orcia, Montalcino, Pienza, Radicofani and San Quirico d`Orcia.
