Great panoramic point on the valley in which Firenzuola is located and on various clay formations, Mount Canda is 1,158 meters high and from its slopes arises a lower branch of the Idice torrent, which will later become an important watercourse in the province of Bologna, as well as one of the main tributaries of the Rhine River.
