Places to visit near Chianciano Terme
Montepulciano, 8 km
Just 8 km away from our hotel is
Montepulciano, famous for its
Noble Wine but also a lovely town to visit, due to its suggestive position and ancient history (the town was founded by the Etruscans). A typical activity when travelling here is to visit the many underground wine cellars of the town, where you can taste
local products accompanied by the famous
wines.
Pienza, 20 km
The most important town of the
Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO
World Heritage site since 1996, Pienza is the birthplace of Enea Silvio Piccolomini, who went on to become Pope Pius II. Most of the historical-artistic treasures of the town can be found in the square dedicated to his memory.
Siena, 80 km
This city needs no introductions, given that it is universally known for its very particular historical centre, dominated by the
Torre del Mangia in the famous
Piazza del Campo, which also hosts the legendary
Palio di Siena.
Firenze, 120 km
The cradle of the Italian Renaissance is not that far from us. Make the most of your opportunity to see
Brunelleschi’s Cupola or
Giotto’s Campanile. If you are aiming to do some high-quality Made in Italy shopping, keep in mind that the
Tuscan luxury outlet The Mall is also located near
Florence.
The nearby region of Umbria
Don’t forget that
Chianciano Terme is also near to the border with the region of Umbria. For example,
Lake Trasimeno is just 25 km away, while only 55 km away is
Orvieto, a city more than worthy of a visit, not just due to its fascinating
Saint Patrick’s Well. Other landmarks that are fully worth visiting are
Perugia, 70 km from
Chianciano Terme, or the unmissable
Assisi, 90 km away, the reference point for millions of pilgrims.
Naturally, there are many other towns worth visiting in the area, such as Cortona, Cetona, Chiusi, Sarteano and more. Don’t hesitate to contact us for any information or doubts!
Mountain bike trails

sport and an active open-air holiday, combine the
wellness of the
thermal baths with the pleasant emotions of bicycle trips between the
Val d’Orcia and the
Valdichiana. Cycling in the world-famous landscape of
Tuscany is truly delightful.
For example, try the
new Val di Chiana reclamation trail, 60 km long and completely flat, suitable also for
couples or
families.
Among the other most beloved cycling trails of the Valdichiana, it’s worth mentioning the one
from Chiusi to San Casciano dei Bagni and the Mount Cetona trail.
