Passo Cento Croci offers splendid views over the Cimone Valley, starting from the woods surrounding Castellino di Riolunato and the village over there, at the foot of the highest peak of the northern Apennines, with its 2,165 meters of altitude. On the other side, the Val Dragone extends, largely still untouched and characterized by woods as far as the eye can see. You can see the wind turbines of Madonna di Pietravolta and, more in the distance, the profile of the hills of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines: Monte Cusna and Monte Prado. At the pass there is also the small Chapel of Cento Croci which makes the area even more pleasant.

The territory of Abetone has always been a crossing point of the Apennines, so much so that it is said to have also been used by Hannibal to enter Etruria. The construction of the road dates back to 1766 to unite the Grand Duchy of Tuscany with the Duchy of Modena. During construction, a fir tree was demolished so large that it could not be embraced even by six people and from which the name Abetone was born.
