DIRECTIONS  – Where do the hot air balloons takeoff?

Chianti – San Casciano in Val di Pesa.

The fields where we usually take off are located 9 miles south of Florence on the hills along the Pesa valley, strategically positioned along the main road “Via Cassia” (SR2) leading from Florence to Siena.

We will meet in the minute village Calzaiolo, at the corner of “Hotel Calzaiolo”.

• From Florence or Siena:
• Take the motorway Superstrada Firenze – Siena
