Val d'Orcia | The newly built pedestrian bridge over the Orcia River near Bagno Vignoni

We recommend a walk along the Francigena path and the pedestrian wooden bridge on the Orcia river. Walk directly out of Bagno Vignoni and descend to the Orcia River. There used to be a Roman bridge over the Orcia, but the bridge that was swept away in the great floods of 1929.
This was once an important crossing, connecting the castle of Ripa with those of Rocca d’Orcia and Castiglione d'Orcia. The road now crosses on a modern bridge a bit further down river, but an impressive arched wooden pedestrian bridge has been built on top of the old foundations.
