Via Clanis stages: here we are!

The GTValdichiana Association was born from the passion for trekking of a group of friends and from the experience gained from walking along the ancient paths which surround the Chiana Valley. A ring route of 180 km connects all the historical villages and cities of the Val di Chiana and the entire path name is called La VIA CLANIS named after the Etruscan name of the Chiana which is the river that flows in the Valley.

There are 8 stages that will lead the walker to discover the Clanis River, wonderful villages, rich in Etruscan and Roman history, breathtaking views, excellent food and wine and genuine hospitality.

The stage that also involves Gargonza is called the “the route of the towers and the castles” and a more fitting name for us could not be used.

You can therefore sleep or eat in Gargonza taking advantage of our B&B accommodation and eat at our restaurant or have a snack at our shop located inside the village.

We sincerely thank Mr. Sauro Casucci who, together with the GTValdiChiana Cultural Association, conceived and studied all the paths including ours.
