In the footsteps of medieval pilgrims, half day tour

We meet in the charming hamlet of Monteriggioni, perched on a hill and crowned by walls and towers that impressed the famous writer Dante Alighieri that mentioned in his "Commedia". After a visit to the hamlet we set off on the "Via Francigena" path, that was a pilgrimage and communication road that was crossing Italy to Rome, one of the most important destinations for the pilgrims along the centuries. But there were so many other reasons to be on that road and we'll explore them. After a pleasant walk on dirt roads we'll reach a former Benedictine Monastery that has been recently restored. Our walk back to Monteriggioni will take us on a rocky path in the woods of the "Montagnola senese" and just before the end we'll enjoy a panoramic view over the hamlet.
