    Hiking

    Spectacular peak with a 360 ° panorama of the Apennines, the Apuan Alps and the Tyrrhenian coast. Non-trivial path that often requires the use of hands and feet

    Hiking

    Pizzo d'Uccello (1,781 m a.s.l.) is called the Matterhorn of the Apuan Alps due to its shape that resembles a pyramid and the fact that its rock conformation resembles that of the Alpine mountains. Its north face, vertical for almost 800 meters, is impressive!
    It is not the highest peak of the Apuan Alps and yet it is climbed by many who try their hand at the ascent along the normal route which is a sort of mountaineer's baptism, although it is not excessively difficult it does have some challenging passages.

    Hiking

    The summit of Pizzo d'Uccello rises to 1,781 m a.s.l.
    The mountain represents the watershed between the upper valley of the Serchio (Garfagnana) and that of the Magra (Lunigiana) and delimits the border between the provinces of Lucca and Massa and Carrara.
    Its North Face is spectacular: a slope of almost 800 m in altitude that has nothing to envy to the most famous walls of the Dolomites or the Western Alps.
    Near the Pizzo there are other beautiful peaks of the Apuan Alps: Monte Pisanino, Monte Cavallo, Monte Contrario and Monte Grondilice.
