Tour of Monte Falterona, Capo d'Arno and Le Balze delle Rondinaie

Beautiful hiking ring in the woods and ridges of the highest peaks of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines, in the heart of the Casentino Forests. We are on Mount Falterona, at the source of the river Arno, mentioned by Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy.

Besides its springs, this place is also important as an archaeological site. Here, in fact, numerous finds of the Etruscan era have been discovered that testify how much the history of the valley has ancient roots.

The Black Gorga

The Idoli Lake

Cape Arno
