Wellness-tour
If you could close your eyes and push away the overwork, the traffic, the pollution, the stress… it would be a desire for many, especially now that we’re living in modern times going faster and faster. But in Tuscany this is a dream that comes true: ask the tourists that every year choose this destination to escape the ordinary through a relaxing vacation at the thermal spas.
This village is different from the others: what in traditional towns is a main square, in Bagno Vignoni is a pool 49 meters long and 29 wide, from the bottom of which bubble up a number of hot springs whose therapeutic quality has been renowned since antiquity.
In the village, there are numerous hot springs with 40° C water. In the area, you can find free baths from the Roman era that are still largely usable. You can reach them at the foot of the hill that surrounds the medieval village.
Amid the beauty of the Val d’Orcia and the woods of Monte Amiata, Bagni San Filippo is known as one of Tuscany’s most stunning spa towns, largely due to its trademark backdrop of white calcareous deposits, which make a lasting visual impact.
The natural thermal springs of Petriolo are surrounded by greenery, cascading at a temperature of 43 degrees. The characteristic limestone of these spas has allowed the formation of pools over time that naturally collect the warm thermal waters of the springs where you can relax.
Discover the region
A paradise for botanists and birdwatchers: the crisp scent of the forest, the different tones of green leaves and grass and blue sky and water. Inhale the clean air, listen to birdsong and relax into the rhythm of nature all around. Walking or pedalling through unspoiled landscapes with binoculars, a camera or a paintbrush.
