Castelvecchio walk

half or full day - difficulty level: easy to moderate
optional visit to San Gimignano (2 hours)

We plunge into one of the 14 Natural Reserves of Siena province, Castelvecchio, a medieval old Castle whose fascinating remains are immersed into the vegetation and can be reached only on foot. This ruined hamlet has a very interesting history, I am sure you look forward to listening to it!
After the walk you may choose to visit San Gimignano, the medieval settlement with the most famous skyline, featuring one tower after the other. We walk on the pilgrims’ footsteps to reach the main square, where, after all the exercise, we can be rewarded by the best gelato ever!
