Who: Walden viaggi a piedi
Trekking organised by the GRT Member Walden Viaggi a Piedi aiming at environmental discovery. A guide and the women she meets are an example of awareness
For her "Travelling on foot means living the world inside and outside of me with calm and pleasure. It is always a joy to discover step by step not only an enchanting nature but also history, traditions, foods, culture and the locals". Val d'Orcia is one of her places of the heart, among the hills of the Crete, with endless lotus spaces, in autumn yellow ochre and green wheat in spring, the rows of cypress trees on the horizon, medieval towns and villages such as San Quirico d'Orcia, Pienza or Montalcino.
"It is impossible to escape the magic of evocative places such as the abbey of Sant' Antimo- says Barbara- or the ancient baths of Bagno Vignoni already appreciated by Lorenzo dei Medici and Santa Caterina di Siena. The genuine hospitality and love for this land are felt not only at the table but also talking to the women we meet".
Like Chiara, who with her small landlord continues the work started by her grandmother and aunt with great awareness.
Or, at the next stage, in the farm that Luisa has inherited and that has made an example of Tuscan rural hospitality, with cooking classes, tricot, sports, great dinners with the products of the fields, such as wheat, spelt, broad beans.
