Monte Falterona, Campigna
This protected area lies along the Apennine ridge in Toscana
and Romagna. Its woods are considered among the largest
and the best preserved in Italy, and house a rich variety
of flora and fauna, such as wolves and golden eagles among
predators, and many species of ungulates. The forests and
a number of natural habitats of the area are rich in traces
left by man during the centuries: by walking in the Park,
tourists can see small villages with stone houses, mule
tracks, and above all the two charming sanctuaries of Camaldoli
and La Verna.
