BORGO MONTALCINELLO

We are not Montalcino. We are not Montepulciano. No crowds, no traffic. Just ancient stones, real traditions, wild nature, Sienese landscapes, and two or three genuine cats. Welcome to Montalcinello, the village where the stones speak

Fewer words, more action! ⛏️🌿

We protect the hidden beauty of Montalcinello. 🪨 Hikes, geology, cave roads and wild nature. Rediscover the heart of the village with us.

If these days we’ve been a bit quiet, it’s simply because our hands were working more than the keyboard. The restoration work at the Scogli continues nonstop: after completing the intervention on Silvia’s side, we’re now joining forces with Gianluca to open a new passage from his side too.

 

The effort pays off: the magnificent Pulpit Boulder (one of the iconic elements of the Scogli that you can admire in the photo below 👇) is finally starting to bare itself, re-emerging in all its ancient beauty.

 

To let it breathe, we’re tackling a real "forteto": an impenetrable tangle of brambles, traveller’s joy and ivy that held the rock prisoner in a deadly embrace. This deep clearing is essential not only to bring light back to the Scogli, but also to enjoy the woods in peace, reducing the spread of horseflies and other pests.

 

🔎 A call to geology lovers and researchers: our heritage is waiting for you. Contact us to arrange a field visit and discover these unique formations up close!
