Nearby places to visit
Mugello: a few kilometers north of Florence, the Mugello looks like a large green valley crossed by a stretch of the Sieve river, one of the largest tributaries of the Arno, the main river in Tuscany. The area is characterized by the richness of the nature of the territory and the variety of the landscape, which sees alternating flat areas, hilly stretches and mountain areas, with a lot of Medici villages and residences to be discovered.
