Immaculate feast in the Casentino, between wolves and hermits.
Another idea to spend the feast of the immaculate 2018 in Tuscany is to immerse yourself in nature and rediscover the contact with simple things.
The Casentino, for example, allows you to spend a beautiful weekend immersed in the centuries-old forests of the National Park, between the sanctuary of La Verna and the Hermitage of Camaldoli.
Wildlife enthusiasts can make excursions with expert guides for an unmissable rendezvous with wolves, walking through the forest, detecting footprints, bone remains and other signs of the presence of the great predator.
An excursion to the top of Monte Penna in Badia Prataglia, on the other hand, will take you on a spectacular natural balcony where the forest suddenly stops and opens up a panorama of unexpected vastness that sweeps up to the sea.
For families with children the ideal choice is a short excursion to the Arboretum of Badia Prataglia, where grow up huge trees from all over the northern hemisphere, including also “redwood” sequoia of California.
