Loro Ciuffenna - charming medieval town on the slope of Monte Pratomagno One of the highlights on the scenic "Sette Ponti" Route |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
How to get there: Auto: Directions from Autostrada del Sole (A1 - Firenze/Roma) Leave the Autostrada at the Valdarno exit, approx. 40 km south of Firenze. Follow signs to the village of Loro Ciuffenna, approx. 8 km. (Note: you'll go through two small towns, Terranuova Bracciolini first and then, Penna [a very small town], before reaching Loro Ciuffenna. Make sure you stay to the left in Penna (where the road splits). Continue straight across the roundabout into Loro Ciuffenna; crossing the second (old) bridge takes you into the center of town; the new one is a bypass. By Air or train: Florence's Amerigo Vespucci [FLR] and Pisa [PSA] are the closest airports; Rome's Fiumicino [FCO], Milan's Malpensa [MXP], and Bologna [BLQ] airports are also convenient - e.g. there's a shuttle from Fiumicino directly to Roma Termini and the EC/IC train ride to Cortona's Terontola station takes ca. 1-1/2 hours, where you can transfer to a local train to Montevarchi. If you're arriving by train, the closest station is Montevarchi which is on the slower (no ES or IC trains) between Firenze & Roma.
