Looking for spring in Tuscany

[Django]

Day 3 - 319 km from Civitavecchia to Castellina

After breakfast, we packed our motorcycles again and said good-bye to our friendly host.

While this morning the sun was shining, it was quite chilly and there was a stiff breeze from north.

We had prepared a route up to the hills and then north to Tuscany, all back country roads, passing beautiful landscape, nice little towns and small winding roads. We just had to follow our Garmin Zumo 660, which should lead us our route the next 319 km to the next booked hotel in Castellina, north of famous Siena.

This time I uploaded our track to google maps to allow you, to follow us on the map:

Right after leaving Civitavecchia we enjoyed riding the twisty road up to the hills. In the little village Tolfa we had our first rest to savour the nice landscape.





Then we followed the small winding roads to Pitigliano,







had a stop at Sorano







and finally made it to Siena.



From here it was less than an hour to our hotel in Castellina, a former homestead, surrounded by grapevines.





We were very happy with the day, the ride and this really beautiful hotel. This could only be completed with a tasty original Italian pizza and half a liter Chianti wine and some Grappa in the nearby restaurant.
