Turning left after the little
church 'San Lorenzo' onto a very small path, we soon could turn
around and see the 'Castello di Vincigliato' behind us. Turning
left in front of a large walled farmhouse, the trail led us
up to the main road with another Castello barely visible through
the woods up on our left. Here is where we met Amy and Alex!
They were toting the 'Walking in Tuscany' book and obviously
lost. Having taken a wrong turn, and not carrying a map, they
welcomed our help in getting them back to the correct path towards
Castello Vincigliato. We ran into them again while we were in
Pisa the next day, what a coincidence, and they had enjoyed
walking this section in the opposite direction.
We turned onto path #6, well marked with the red-white stripes.
The path goes to the right around a farmhouse and from the olive
grove below offered graceful vistas in all directions.
