Radicofani, seen from the Via Francigena

The itinerary from San Quirico d'Orcia to Radicofani, along the path of the ancient Via Francigena, is one of the most intriging an rewarding tracks of this old perlgrims route. This challenging part of the Via Francigena starts in San Quirico d'Orcia and takes you in about 7 hours to Radicofani.
The first track, the path that links San Quirico to Bagno Vignoni includes a very steep slope on an unpaved road. But the views from Vignini Alto on the Val d'Orcia are gratifying. The next stop it the central square of Bagno Vignoni, in which is located a large pool (baths of St. Catherine). This magical place is named Piazza delle Sorgenti and was the decor of Tarkovsky’s Nostalghia.
