The territory of Chianti, with is rolling hills and winding roads is rich in natural beauty in the center of Tuscany. You can discover medieval small hill towns, castles, churches, monasteries, and villas which attest to the talent and inventiveness of man; the creativity of man can be seen firsthand in the blending of rows and rows of vineyards, olive groves and forests. The harmony created is unique in the world. The two principal roads traversing Chianti suggest two different ways of "reading" the countryside.

Along the via Cassia, or alternatively the faster superstrada Firenze-Siena, you can relive the road of the pilgrims on their medieval journey from Northern Europe to Rome passing by, as they did, parishes, small boroughs, hostels and abbeys.

The via Chiantigiana instead is an agriculture road which passes through vineyards and olive groves on its winding journey. In either case, the roads offer visitors an unforgettable passage through the seasonal colors and atmosphere of the seasons. There are numerous side roads where you can wander about discovering isolated parish churches, silent testimony to the rich history and art of Chianti.
