Activities and sightseeing

Relax, walks, good food

For nature lovers

Nature lovers may ride with Mountain Bikes (rentable on request) on hill roads and take a stroll in the natural environment of the Cultural and Natural Park of Val d’Orcia, UNESCO humanity patrimony, where our Farm is located. Otherwise, they may rediscover the beauty of ancient towns along the Via Francigena up to slopes of Mount Amiata.

Terrapille guests may watch farming during the various seasons, seeding and threshing of cereals, olive picking, vintage, or relax in our panoramic pool opposite of Mount Amiata.

Such a heartwarming environment is the preferred destination for artists, painters, photographers, poets, writers and movie directors. Ridley Scott filmed some scenes of his “The Gladiator” on the road for Terrapille.
