Trek the Apennines mountains to the ghost village

The Apennines is a mountain range that stretches from the north to the south of Italy. It crosses through Mugello, enriching the town with its incredible mountainous landscape. The trekking path has been part of the area’s main road network since Etruscan times, located between central Italy and the Lombardy plain. The area was used primarily by the Etruscans to connect the towns of Fiesole and Felsina (Bologna). It was then populated by the Romans, and in the Medieval times was home to Tuscany’s noble Count Guidi, It remained inhabited by farming families until the 1960s. This excursion through the woods is therefore a journey between past and present. Signs of early human inhabitants are still evident in the form of old houses and established streets, but the now abandoned space is simply a reminder of the life that was.
