9. Continuing straight after La Speranza for 0.7 km, you will see some horses and a little farm on your left. There will be a COMUNE DI CASOLE D’ELSA BENVENUTI sign on your right. Twenty meters after this sign, there is a gravel road on your righthand side and a small AZIENDA AGRICOLA DEL CASTELLO DI CASOLE sign. Turn right onto this road. NOTE: If you pass the green sign for Molino d’Elsa Pizzeria, you’ve gone too far.
10. Take this road for about 3.3 km and follow the white signs for CETENA. This road changes from a gravel road to a paved one and then back to a gravel road. You will pass LA CASA on your left, SAN GIUSEPPE on your right, then SAN REGOLO on your right. Finally, UFFICI AMMINISTRATIVI is on your right. After this building, there is an intersection.
