Getting around
Arriving
none nearby. No railway in the tuff country. AT buses reach Pitigliano from Grosseto and from Albinia on the coast line; a car is the practical Maremma answer.
Tickets · Autolinee Toscane
The tuff city on its blade of rock is walked; the Vie Cave sunken Etruscan roads start below the walls
AT app and tabaccherie.
Validate when boarding.
On foot
- ·The approach viewpoint on the Manciano road gives the postcard; inside, the little Jerusalem's synagogue quarter and the lanes fill a half day
- ·The Vie Cave to Sovana is an otherworldly walk between ten metre tuff walls; sturdy shoes after rain
Taxis and driving
- ·The tuff triangle (Pitigliano, Sovana, Sorano) really needs a car; distances are small, buses are rare
