The town of RADICONDOLI, almost completely surrounded by its original medieval walls, springs up from a hill approximately 40 Km. Southwest of Siena in the heart of Tuscany.

The landscape is particularly striking, with the works of man blending in harmoniously with nature. Castles and old farms in the area attract many visitors.

The most important points of historic interest in the region are all nearby:
the medieval towns of S. GIMIGNANO and VOLTERRA, rich in Etruscan ruins, are only 50 minutes away; SIENA or FLORENCE can be easily reached in just over an hour's drive and in just a little more, you can be at the seaside.
Another possibility, pleasant and beneficial at the same time, is a dip at the ancient thermal baths at Bagni delle Galleraie, a source of hot sulphurous water, about 15 Km away.
In the same area there are numerous sulphurous geysers, some of which are amongst the most powerful in the world. They are closely studied by experts and scientists for their use as natural energy sources both for  innovative geo-thermal electrical power plants and for greenhouse plant cultivation. Castles and old farms in the vicinity attract many visitors.
Most of the area, which is scantily inhabited, is covered by forest rich in Mediterranean flora and wild fauna. The rivers that flow through the territory are clean and clear with rich vegetation along their banks: on a hot summer day one is easily tempted to take a dip!
 
 
 

But Best of all, you will have the opportunity to rest, relax and just doing nothing, in one of the most untouched landscapes in the world!
