Day 15 Siena to Montereggioni

The sky today looks a lot better in leaving Siena. Some people rave about the city but I still don’t warm to it. Maybe because once the sights have been seen (you pay to see the duomo) you can only shop and eat.
What a great days walk. The Weather was perfect cloudy with bits of sunshine but not hot. Mostly through forest and at times along muddy tracks but it is always nice to hear the birds and again a cuckoo’s singing. I passed two trail angel places one supper large with wine, cappuccini, cakes, drinks all for donation. A group of Italian men came along and had two bottles of wine. I’m not sure when they would arrive at their destination. Monteriggioni is small and buzzing but full of character and atmosphere. What a great day I have had. 20km with ok not 400m elevation.Read more
