The hills around Montopoli are famous for the precious white truffles. Specialist truffle-hunters scour the countryside with their dogs throughout the autumn, and often come back laden, but they never reveal the exact spot where the truffles were found. They are often sold to brokers at high prices to be distributed globally, but can also be found in the local restaurants. In November the White Truffle market exhibition takes place in San Miniato which, in addition to the precious truffles, also offers visitors the best fine wines of the area and other gastronomic specialties. San Miniato is a pretty place, only 15 km from Montopoli.

Just 30 mins from Pisa airport and 40 mins from the centre of Florence, there are many interesting places to visit in the immediate vicinity: the town of Vinci is the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci and hosts a wonderful museum in his honour; Montelupo Fiorentino hosts an important museum of Renaissance ceramics works; and Artimino, with a collection of wonderful Medici villas. This area has been continuously inhabited since the Etruscan time: almost all the villages in the surrounding hills already existed in ancient times and it is not a rare event to come across Etruscan finds and archaeological excavations. This is the perfect place from which to explore the whole of Tuscany with the art treasures and architecture of Florence, Volterra, San Gimignano and Lucca on the doorstep.

Distances: Montopoli on the doorstep, Pisa (airport) 35 km, Lucca 40 km, beaches 40 km, Florence 45 km, San Gimignano 45 km, Volterra 50 km, Siena 80 km.
