Via Francigena stage 6, from Lucca to Siena
Holiday packagesEight-day trekking adventure through ancient Tuscan roads and traditions
Stage 6 is one of the most beloved sections of the itinerary. Lucca is undoubtedly an ideal place to start your adventure. You will see the beautiful city with its walkable walls, the towers crowned with hanging gardens, the picturesque amphitheater square.
Then, venture into the typically Tuscan landscape: cypress trees and hills, farmhouses and vineyards, the towers of San Gimignano and those of Monteriggioni Castle, nestled amidst charming river parks, white roads, and picturesque villages.
Finally, make a stop in the neighborhoods of Siena and its striking shell-shaped Piazza, where the famous Palio takes place and where pilgrims can savor the sweet success of a completed journey.
