Castelnuovo di Garfagnana: The Must-Do Activities

Castelnuovo di Garfagnana: What to do when you get there?

Castelnuovo di Garfagnana is a picturesque town and commune in the province of Lucca in Tuscany, central Italy. It is located in a particular area: the Garfagnana valley that is crossed by the Serchio and Turrite Secca rivers among the Apennine Mountains and the Apuan Alps.

In fact Garfagnana is characterised by lush green valleys and the mountains of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines National Park in the east and the Apuan Alps in the west. The territory offers incredible natural scenery mixed with charming villages to practice outdoor activities: hiking, mountain biking, canyoning and caving during the summer and snowshoeing during the winter.

The most renowned trekking trails in the area are the one from Castelnuovo Garfagnana to Barga, from the Wind Cave to the legendary Devil’s Bridge (an incredible rock formation) and the ghost town of Vagli di Sotto.

Other highlights of the area are the caving excursion in the Streaming Cave, the Orrido di Botri Canyon and the Rio Selvano Canyon and many more: you will surprised but how much Garfagna has to offer!

Wat een fantastische activiteit. Leuke gids. We waren alleen met ons gezin dus hadden de tijd om het parcour op ons eigen tempo te doen. Prachtige omgeving em goed te doen voor iedereen. Onze jongens 15 jaar durfde natuurlijk het meest. Wij ouders hebben alleen de sprong van 6 meter niet gedaan, toch net effe te eng maar het abseilen ging prima. Kortom een aanrader.

Canyoning in the Rio Selvano: amazing activity, but the group of 18 people was too big. We expected to be alone with our group of 11 people.
