Chianti and its ancient roads reconnect with the spiritual, archaeological, and rural traditions of this land. There are few places in the world like Chianti, where the natural landscape merges with millenary history. Several footpaths lead you along routes dating back to the Middle Ages, which left deep and well-preserved traces among these hills.
Together with a local hiking guide, you will have the chance to walk along these age-old paths, once considered strategic routes that, for centuries, attracted pilgrims to this sublime territory. This experience is one of the best ways to enjoy Tuscany’s landscape in full harmony with nature. Simply slow down and immerse yourself in it.

Castellina in Chianti is a comune (municipality) of c. 2,800 inhabitants in the province of Siena, in the Italian region Tuscany, located about 35 kilometres (22 mi) south of Florence and about 15 kilometres (9 mi) northwest of Siena. It is part of the Chianti Hills, between the valleys of the Arbia, Pesa and Elsa rivers.
The territory of Castellina in Chianti borders the following municipalities: Barberino Val d'Elsa, Castelnuovo Berardenga, Greve in Chianti, Monteriggioni, Poggibonsi, Radda in Chianti, Tavarnelle Val di Pesa.
The first settlements in the area dates from the Etruscan age, and they were probably devastated by Gaulish invasions at the time of the latter's invasions against Rome.
In the early Middle Ages the town was known as Salingolpe; in the 11th century Matilda of Tuscany gave it as fief to the counts Guidi and, subsequently, to the Trebbio. In the early 15th century it became a stronghold, of which today the Rocca remain.
