Montepulciano

Highlight • Settlement

Beautiful medieval village to visit. From the view of the vineyards to that of the Val d'Orcia, there is no shortage of views, not to mention the streets and alleys within the city walls. Unmissable Piazza Grande.

Starting from San Quirico d'Orcia, we cycle through the rolling hills of the Val d'Orcia, along scenic roads offering spectacular views of cypress trees, cultivated fields, and medieval villages. We pass through Pienza, a splendid Renaissance town ideal for a brief stop. From here, the road gently climbs towards Montepulciano, particularly the 16th-century church of San Biagio.
