From Siena to the sea
Siena is about 95 km away: less than two hours through the hills, then the sea of the Etruscan Coast and the village pinewood.
From Siena you head towards Colle di Val d’Elsa, drive down the Val di Cecina to Cecina and join the S.S.1 Aurelia southbound, leaving at La California-Cecina sud. The landscape changes slowly: the Crete, hills, pinewood, sea.
The distance lets you visit Siena in a day and be back for dinner, or split your stay between art and beach.
