View of Pitigliano

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are no words to describe Pitigliano if wonderful... a town in the Tufo Area, in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, Pitigliano is one of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy and an Orange Flag.

Also nicknamed Little Jerusalem, because starting from the 16th century it hosted a large Jewish community within its walls, Pitigliano is today one of the most fascinating historic villages in Italy and an unmissable stop during a trip to Tuscany.

Perched on a tuff cliff, the town stands imposingly on the valleys of the Lente, Meleta and Prochio streams, offering a wonderful view of the wild and uncontaminated nature of this area of the Tuscan Maremma.

It is one of those places that leave you speechless or, if we want to put it as it is used today ... WOW!
Practically excavated in the tuff rock of volcanic origin, the village is erected on a suggestive promontory which gives the urban profile of Pitigliano a rare and unique beauty.
The village is also part of an area known as the "tuff villages", located near the border between Tuscany and Lazio. Its location, therefore, makes Pitigliano a perfect base for discovering the wonders of both regions, a perfect visiting card of what awaits you in the splendid Tuscia of Viterbo.
A sweet territory, full of history and with little traffic. Here the speed of the bicycle is perfect for visiting the many places that we find along our route.
If you are a wine lover, come in September. The winemaking tradition of this area is celebrated in a special event called SETTEMBREDIVINO, during which the doors of the cellars are opened, also dug into the tuff of the steep promontories of Pitigliano.
The winemaking tradition of this area is based on the Tuscan variety of white grapes (Trebbiano Toscano). Bianco di Pitigliano is a still wine with floral and mineral notes. There are also several reds to try, among which the most famous are certainly Morellino di Scansano or Sovana DOC.
We were on our bikes, but luckily the van that assisted us had space and we loaded a few cases of wine!
But not just wine… in Pitigliano you will find other specialties such as “evictions”, a biscuit in the shape of a curved stick that we tasted at the bakery in the ghetto near the synagogue. Do not stop at the first squares or the initial streets, visit the whole village with the necessary calm, otherwise you risk not finding the Jewish ghetto and not understanding its influence.
Writing about Pitigliano in a post is impossible!
For those who want to learn more, follow the reading or search the internet, you will discover a unique territory!

View of Sorano

Highlight • Viewpoint

Medieval Sorano is located in the Tuscan province of Grosseto. Like the better-known, nearby Pitigliano, the picturesque town is a Città del Tufo, a so-called tuff stone town. The tuff in this region dates back to volcanic activity. It is the most widely used building material here; the stones are cut from the rocks on site.
