Local activities in and around Castelnuovo Di Garfagnana, Tuscany
Apart from the obvious city destinations of Florence, Lucca and Sienna that attract people to Tuscany there are also many local places to visit. You shouldn't have to go much more than ten miles in any direction to appreciate what the area has to offer.
Most villages in the Garfagnana area are medieval and Castiglioni, Corfino, Silico and San Romano are amongst the best. The 'Orriciella' is a Parco De Naturale and has very easy walks with several quiet bars and restaurants. Lago De Vagli (Vagli Sotto) and Lago Di Pontecossi are lovely lakeside picnic spots where rowing and motor boats can be hired.
Barga is an atmospheric, historical town with strong Scottish connections. Castelnuovo and Barga both have public swimming pools as does Piazza al Serchio further along the valley. For a day at the beach, the fashionable resort of Forti Dei Marmi is around 45kms. away.
From Pisa to Lucca then on to Castelnuovo. Full directions supplied on booking.
