Small village, famous for its Camellias... from here you can go down towards Massa Macinaia and then Guamo through what is reported as a variant of the Via Francigena...

The ascent to San Andrea from the via di Tiglio is very beautiful. Along a stream. There are two fountains along the way where you can fill up with water. The beautiful descent to Massa Maccinaia is worth the climb, which is quite moderate. Once you're at the bottom, you can decide to climb a few more meters to San Ginese or you can ride without any climbs towards Lucca or Bientina. Very beautiful route.
