Activity itinerary

Cipressi di San Quirico d'Orcia
  • 15m
Begin your stroll at the Gate to the Capuchins, a centuries-old entrance dating back to the 16th century. Once marking the threshold of the Capuchin Monastery, this weathered archway carries the spirit of a quieter age. Picture monks in brown robes passing through in solemn prayer, their chants echoing softly in the Tuscan breeze.
San Quirico d'Orcia
  • 15m
Wander down Poliziano Street, a winding ribbon of cobblestones framed by medieval buildings and ivy-covered façades. Named after the famed 15th-century poet Angelo Poliziano, it invites you to walk slowly and soak in the details—weathered stone, iron balconies, shuttered windows, and the scent of old-world Italy lingering in the air.
Palazzo Chigi
  • 15m
Arrive at Chigi Square, where Renaissance flair meets everyday life. Gaze at the stately Town Hall and then step inside the Collegiate Church of San Quirico, founded in the 12th century. Its blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles and finely carved portal make it a masterpiece of spiritual and artistic devotion.
Piazza della Libertà
  • 10m
Next, drift into Liberty Square, a lively crossroads alive with conversation and espresso aromas. Since the 19th century, this plaza has been a place where stories unfold—over coffee, gelato, or quiet observation of daily Tuscan rhythms.
Horti Leonini
  • 15m
Slip into the quiet elegance of the Leonini Gardens, a Renaissance jewel laid out in 1580 by Diomede Leoni. Symmetrical hedges and gravel paths invite leisurely wandering. It’s not just a garden—it’s a living canvas of order and harmony that’s remained unchanged for centuries.
Torre del Cassero
  • 10m
Continue to the Cassero Tower, a stoic 14th-century sentinel. Once a critical part of the town's defences, it now stands silent but proud—its very stones holding the memory of conflicts, triumphs, and generations who called San Quirico home.
Via della Piaggia
  • 15m
Meander down Piaggia Street, once a protective perimeter, now a scenic terrace walk along the old city walls. As you stroll, panoramic views of the Tuscan hills unfurl like a painting—golden fields, olive groves, and distant cypress trees.
Ospedale della Scala
  • 15m
Pause at the Scala Hospital, founded in the 13th century as a haven for weary pilgrims on the Via Francigena. Though now retired from service, its architecture still whispers stories of care and welcome.
Via Dante Alighieri
  • 10m
End your journey on Dante Alighieri Street, where artisan shops hum with creativity and stone-paved paths echo with history. This street, equal parts elegant and inviting, is perfect for lingering—a finale steeped in charm and Tuscan soul.
