In the Valle d’Ombrone, along the river Farma, there are the free thermal baths of Petriolo<\/strong>, set in a very suggestive landscape. They are the most famous free hot springs<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0in Tuscany after those of Saturnia and are definitely worth a visit. Do not miss the fantastic and beneficial frigidarium-calidarium effect that is obtained by passing from the warm waters of the thermal spring to the cold waters of the river Farma.<\/p>\n

Culture: Abbey of San Galgano<\/h2>\n

From Paganico<\/strong> starts a breathtaking path that for 38 kilometers runs through the heart of the Maremma, among woods, medieval fortifications, scenic avenues of cypresses and castles. The route<\/a>, one of the most beautiful in the Maremma and accessible by bicycle, is recommended for trained cyclists, considering the length and stretches with considerable slope.<\/p>\n
