Casa indipendente in loc. poggio marco s.n.c., Arcidosso

Monte Amiata rises immediately above Arcidosso, with chestnut woods and the volcanic slopes of the mountain defining the area. The upper Val d'Orcia lies to the north-east within this radius, and the Amiata territory includes villages with preserved historic centres such as Arcidosso itself and Santa Fiora. The Monte Amiata area is known for chestnuts, beech forest, springs and winter skiing; the nearest ski runs are on Monte Amiata around Prato delle Macinaie and Pian della Contessa, roughly 20–30 minutes by road from Arcidosso depending on access point. Grosseto is the nearest larger town for full services and rail connections. This is part of the Amiata mountain area, a named landscape in southern Tuscany.
