What to see in and around Monterufoli

The hotel is the ideal starting point to discover the beauties of Monterufoli and its surroundings. This area is best known for the Monterufoli-Caselli Nature Reserve, a true oasis where nature and local history come together: 4,130 hectares of green woodland, footpaths, streams and cliffs. The area is renowned for its rich biodiversity and for being home to a variety of plant and animal species; among the fauna, the Monterufoli pony stands out, characterised by its smaller size and very thick mane.

Thanks to the network of trails, you can also venture out to explore human settlements and ancient architectural remains, such as the Monterufoli Villa, the village of Libbiano and the Castle of the Bishops of Volterra.

Discovering the village of Pomarance

Just over 20 kilometres from UNA Hotels Monterufoli Wine Country lies Pomarance, one of the most renowned towns in this part of Tuscany. Its commitment to preserving its artistic and cultural heritage, its warm welcome to visitors, and its environmental awareness have earned it the Orange Flag, a prestigious tourism award. Among its most notable points of interest, we recommend: 

• The historic centre, where you can soak up the authentic atmosphere of the village by visiting its three gates, Piazza San Dalmazio, the Mugnaini-Ricci house from the 12th century, and the Church of San Giovanni Battista. The latter houses valuable works by the local painter and architect Cristoforo Roncalli.

• The Rocca di Silano (or Rocca Sillana), a striking fortress perched on a rocky outcrop at an altitude of 530 metres. The breathtaking view from here is one of the most famous in the area.

• The Bicocchi House Museum, an old noble residence where you can admire important testimonies of 19th-century local life.
