    Tips

    From the monastery of La Verna, the hiking trail follows a gradual climb, past the monumental fir, the highest silver fir in Italy, the Sasso di Fra Lupo, and finally reaches the highest point, Monte Penna (1283 m). An ancient pagan cult of the mountain god Pen is the reason for the name Monte Penna. From the rock balcony the view sweeps over the Upper Arno Valley and an endless panorama of forests, which are now protected by the Foreste Casentinesi National Park.

        The climb from the monastery takes just under three-quarters of an hour. I recommend walking clockwise.
