Weekend in Valdichiana Senese: hiking and revitalizing waters

package
Holiday packages

A long weekend between land and water, trekking among historic mills in the surroundings of Sarteano and relaxation at the Chianciano spa

Earth and water are the defining elements of the Valdichiana Senese. The earth, with its unique landscape of rolling Tuscan hills, finds its ultimate expression here. The water, thermal and rich in history, has flowed through this territory since the time of the ancient Romans.

Experience these two elements during a long weekend, perfect for couples and groups of friends who love trekking but also enjoy unwinding at the spa.

On your first day, you’ll arrive in Sarteano, where you’ll stay. Take advantage of your free time to visit the Archaeological Civic Museum and the Castle, a majestic medieval fortress, or to explore the charming surroundings.

On the second day, the adventure begins. After visiting the Domenico Beccafumi Art Room in Sarteano, you’ll set off on the Water Path with a guide. This journey takes you through ancient churches, old mills, and Roman baths, following a scenic flat trail that spans two millennia of history. As you descend toward the Astrone River, you’ll encounter remnants of 18 medieval mills, of which only two ruins remain, standing as silent witnesses to a glorious past.

On the third and final day, after check-out, it’s time to indulge in some well-deserved relaxation at the Theia Thermal Pools in Chianciano Terme, where the soothing thermal waters and gentle steam will be the perfect way to end your getaway.
