Lajatico

This is the hilly Valdera countryside, with cultivated ridges, small woods, ravines and scattered farmhouses between the lower Arno plain and the interior hills. The Era river runs through this part of the province. Volterra is the nearest major historic hill town in the wider area and Pisa is the nearest city of size, with full services and rail connections. Peccioli is known for its hilltop historic centre and for contemporary art installations placed in the surrounding countryside.
