Parco Alpi Apuane
The Alpi Apuane distinguish themselves from the near Apennine
chain for their harsh morphology, their deep valleys, and
their imposing and very inclined slopes. The Apuane are
famous for the beauty of their marbles, their deep abysses,
and the great cavities of the karst subsoil.
The geographical position of the massif, its exposure, and
the different nature of the rocks determine the presence
of varied and contrasting environments which favour the
floral and faunistic richness of the territory. see

situated along the coast from Viareggio and Livorno. In
the center of a strongly urbanized area, this territory
has maintained considerable natural features, and here it
is possible to find one of the rare examples of non-buildable
coastal area. more about Massaciuccoli's
