About Pienza
Pienza sits on a ridge above the Val d'Orcia, where cypress-lined lanes give way to rolling wheat fields, clay badlands and vineyard slopes that change colour with the seasons. It is a compact base for walking, cycling and farm visits, and many travellers pair the landscape with a full day out such as the Val d'Orcia Day Trip: Brunello Wine, Montepulciano & Pienza or the Magic Tuscany Tour: Val d'Orcia, Crete Senesi & Pienza from Florence, both of which spend their time in open country rather than indoors.
