A peak a few meters lower than nearby Monte Falco, which is the highest point in the entire Casentino area. It's best known for its source, the Arno River, about 300 square meters below, on its southern slope. It offers a beautiful view of the surrounding valleys and mountains.

A beautiful hiking trail from the source of the Arno to the summit: not too steep and through a beautiful, shady beech forest. From the summit, there are great views to the west.

Refill water at the small fountain.

A particularly beautiful destination in winter 🥰

"The Feast of the Assumption is a warning sign: detach yourselves a little from the earth! And Mother Church reminds us that on this feast we should ask God for the grace to strive for the things of heaven. But this day also answers a question that many people ask themselves today: don't we also have a right to the things of this earth, a right to rest, to pleasure, a right to follow the latest fashion if it pleases us? Yes, we have this right, but within certain limits!" (Albino LUCIANI / Pope John Paul I.)

Monte Falco at 1658 m above sea level, is the highest peak of the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines. Alongside its second (Monte Falterona for only 4 meters less) it marks the border between Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna. Near the Capo d'Arno source and various refuges and restaurants, it offers an excellent view of the valleys, lush forests and numerous routes suitable for everyone. Non-exposed paths. Be careful on the steepest and most rugged sections. Definitely recommended.
