Quiet woodland, four-wheel-drive access
Unnamed Road, 53037, San Gimignano
Been here?
4x4 access only
Getting here needs an off-road vehicle. Check your ground clearance before setting off.
A secluded woodland spot, but recent reports say much of the forest has been cut and the former shelter, table and bin are gone. Access is difficult, with the eastern approach recommended and a 4x4 now considered necessary. The track is rough, rocky and narrow, while the setting remains quiet and isolated.

The forest has all been cut down and is no longer beautiful. Apart from the road, it is not worth it.
A large part of the forest has been cut down, with lots of wood and dry foliage on the ground…
To reach this place, follow the signs for Tenuta Decimo; otherwise the route indicated by the navigation system is passable only by 4x4, with very low branches and a rough track. The pitch is truly immersed in the forest; the shelters and table are no longer there. We recommend it only to those with a 4x4 who enjoy being isolated and close to nature.
Acces from west road is very bad, I damaged my car. You need to go from east, even if its longer. Road there is much better and acceseble for normal cars. The place is in the middle of the forest.
Access has some difficult sections; a 4x4 is essential. Very quiet and pleasant place in the forest. We slept there for two nights, three days apart! Please remember to collect your rubbish; this beautiful place deserves it, as do all wild camping spots.
The pitch is very beautiful, but access from SP 47 is unfortunately not. Very rutted road with large stones, worse than an old Roman road. Our van managed it. The pitch is now empty, with no seating or bins. We enjoyed the quiet night in solitude. We chose the exit toward the east; much, much better!
ATTENTION: DIFFICULT TRACK! The spot is ideal, but 100 m before arriving there is a small, rough uphill section that makes access impossible for many vans. We have a VW California T6.1 and got stuck. It took 2.5 hours of great difficulty to get out. It will certainly leave us with memorable stories, but at the time we would have preferred to avoid it.
Impossible to access with a Peugeot 4x4 van. Besides the narrow track, there are huge rocks on the ground and very deep holes in places. We stopped 100 m before the destination because we could go no farther, and drove the entire route back in reverse! Luckily everything was fine apart from scratches from branches. Not recommended except for 4x4 vehicles.
Quiet and secluded.
