Quercia delle Checche
Tourist attraction
ππ **English Review** Must see tree in this are, it is absolutely huge, not to far off the main road. Also poppy fields in this area at the correct time of the year also worth having a look at. Parking here is very easy as there is a large dirt parking place off the road. There are no toilet facilities...

Val d'Orcia
Tourist attraction
ππ One for the bucket list. The place is so enchanting, scenic views that are so magical. It's like you are seeing a big wallpaper in your computer. Rolling hills, rows of italian pine trees. To get here, it's either you drive your own car or get somebody to drive for you-that's what we did. You will n...

Gladiator Shooting Spot
Tourist attraction
ππ If youβre a fan of the movie, this spot is really cool. Parking can be found with the pin shown. There is a small church being renovated at the top of the driveway with a small parking lot (3-5 cars), but itβs technically for locals only. The driveway is more like a walking path. When we were there,...

ππ Really impressed with this little place, incredible 360 panoramic views from the top but also really well maintained with lots of information boards in English about the castle and itβs history to read. Plus itβs only β¬3 so well worth the trip! Just be warned the steps get pretty steep π°

Cypress Road
Tourist attraction
ππ This one I liked a lot!
Not a fan of well-known spots but it's a superb view all around except the busy road and parked cars a few meters away.
Just walk a bit more on the road to get away from the photo-frenzy and insta-fiends and enjoy the atmosphere.

Fattoria dei Barbi
Winery
π Disappointing experience. Way too many people on the tour, so it was very impersonal. Tasting also needs to include better information on each of the wines being tasted. The wines are only identified initially when poured and itβs easy to lose track of which glass has which wine after all 4-5 wines...
