Airports

Bus

There is a service from Castell’Azzara to Santa Fiora via Selvena. Mark honestly: We do not have the timetable written down yet. If you know it, tell us.

Cycling

Several members get around by bicycle. Go electric — this is a mountainous area. Electric bikes can be rented at Il Cornacchino, bought second-hand through Facebook Marketplace or Subito, or new at the bicycle shop in Abbadia San Salvatore.
