Montepescali () is a small town in southern Tuscany, Italy, a frazione of the comune of Grosseto. The site, from which the scenic panorama of the coastal strip and the Tuscan Archipelago up to Corsica can be seen, is also known as "Terrace or balcony of the Maremma".
==History== The town was built in the early Middle Ages as a fief of the Aldobrandeschi and then passed under the Republic of Siena. After Montepescali was annexed to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, it was granted as a fief to the counts of Elci in 1627 and then passed on to the Ptolemies, to the Guadagni and finally to the Federighi. It became part of the municipality of Roccastrada in 1783, after the administrative reform by grand duke Peter Leopold.
