Tuscany may be famous for Florence, but Siena is its often-overlooked gem.
This charming medieval city boasts a well-preserved historic center filled with cobbled streets, Gothic architecture, and a magnificent main square, Piazza del Campo. Siena is also renowned for its annual horse race, the Palio, which takes place in the heart of the city. Explore the beautiful Siena Cathedral, climb the Torre del Mangia for panoramic views, and indulge in Tuscan cuisine at local osterias.
Few experiences offer the thrill, serenity, and immersion in nature that a scenic hike provides. Whether trekking through alpine meadows, scaling volcanic craters, or walking along coastal cliffs, hiking offers an intimate way to experience the planet's most awe-inspiring landscapes.
