A unique experience, in a piece of history

The unique setting of Borgo di Pietrafitta is well worth the visit.  This newly renovated medieval hamlet was once a thriving village because of its strategic position, practically all pilgrims between 1100 -1300 traveling along the Via Francigena towards Rome stopped here. It is easy to lose a sense of time as you walk around the typical stone structures which sit in a dominant position on the hill top surround by Gallo Nero vineyards, olive groves and forests of oak and chestnut trees.

The nearest little town is Castellina in Chianti, only 5 km away and from here you can take a panoramic tour of the roads twisting around acres and acres of vineyards to visit Radda, Greve or Giaole in Chianti, each of which will tempt you to sit at one of the many outdoor cafes or fine restaurants and contemplate a glass of Chianti’s finest.

There’s always someplace to visit in Tuscany

For those with an adventurous spirit Borgo di Pietrafitta has just the right activity for you. Choose between hiking, biking, golf and horseback riding, each set among the low rolling hills and full forest areas of Chianti.  However, if you prefer something a bit different, which highlights the artistic culture and history of this area, you can easily do a day trip to visit the towns of Siena or Florence less an hour away.  And if you go just a little further you will find the enchanting tower town of San Gimignano to the east and Montalcino, the home of the Brunello wineries to the south.
