Valdichiana


Valdichiana
Valdichiana is the name of a Tuscan region rich in marvellous landscapes, Medieval towns and "pievi" (parish churches) and natural reserves, stretching in the provinces of Siena and Arezzo. Valdichiana is renowned particularly for the famous Chianina meat; actually, Valdichiana is a charming region with an important past: Cortona, Cetona, Castiglion Fiorentino, Sarteano and the other towns of the valley are magnificent evidence thereof.

Those who like healthy holidays can spend some time in the spas in Chianciano Terme and San Casciano dei Bagni, whereas those who love nature can visit the natural reserve of the lake of Chiusi.

After having toured the whole day at the discovery of Valdichiana`s natural and artistic beauties, a dinner with specialities of the area - Chianina meat, Sinalunga delicatessen and pecorino cheese dressed with excellent extra-virgin olive oil and washed down with some Vino Nobile di Montepulciano - is a must.

Valdichiana - At the Tuscan-Umbrian Border

Valdichiana is a valley situated at the border dividing Tuscany and Umbria. On the Tuscan side, Valdichiana stretches in the provinces of Siena and Arezzo.

The Chiani river and the Canale Maestro della Chiana (the main channel of the Chiana river) flow in this part of Tuscany, so rich in rivers, torrents and lakes, such as the lake Trasimeno, in Umbria, and the lake of Montepulciano and Chiusi, in the province of Siena. The lake of Chiusi has been recently transformed into a WWF natural reserve. Tuscan Valdichiana is divided into the municipalities of Arezzo, Castiglion Fiorentino, Civitella in Valdichiana, Cortona, Foiano della Chiana, Lucignano, Marciano della Chiana and Monte San Savino (in the province of Arezzo), Cetona, Chianciano Terme, Chiusi, Montepulciano, San Casciano dei Bagni, Sarteano, Sinalunga, Torrita di Siena and Trequanda (in the province of Siena).
