Campigna is a small mountain town in the heart of the Casentino forests. Although it is currently a collection of a few houses, with a couple of hotels and as many restaurants, Campigna actually has an ancient past. It is believed that the first inhabitants of the area were Ligurian warrior shepherds, who arrived from the shores of the Tyrrhenian Sea in the third millennium BC. Later the Romans settled, interested in defending the strategic position and exploiting the surrounding forests. Today the oldest building is a late 18th century palace where the Granduca hotel is located.

Hiking

Enchanting place, very well-kept and with an alpine look. Starting point of many very beautiful paths towards the highest peaks of the park and also towards the integral reserve of Sasso Fratino
