Garfagnana<\/strong> is a territory that waits only to be discovered.\u00a0Here you will breathe an atmosphere projected towards the future, with a real attention to tourism, but with the spirit still linked to the past, thanks to its traditions and the desire of the inhabitants to carry them forward with passion.<\/p>\n

If you choose to spend your holidays at Casa Vacanze La Pozza<\/strong> you cannot miss a Garfagnana tour<\/strong>: what to see?\u00a0Below we list the main destinations.<\/p>\n

Garfagnana and things to see during your holiday<\/h2>\n

In Garfagnana<\/strong> you will not find cities, but little villages dating back to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.\u00a0One of the main centers is Castelnuovo di Garfagnana<\/strong>.\u00a0Here you can visit the Ariostesca Fortress<\/em><\/strong>, which owes its name to Ludovico Ariosto<\/strong>, who was for many years governor of the area.<\/p>\n

Entering the heart of the Garfagnana<\/em>, opens an endless possibility of things to see and experiences to devote.\u00a0Follow us on this journey.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Orecchiella Park<\/h3>\n

The Orecchiella Park<\/strong> is a real paradise. You will immerse yourself in the most unspoilt nature.\u00a0Trails in the woods, wild animals and a beautiful small botanical garden full of flowers.\u00a0In the Orecchiella Park<\/strong> you will find an area equipped with a bar and restaurant and a natural history museum that tells about the fauna and flora present in the park.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fortress of Mont’Alfonso<\/h3>\n

Continuing on our Garfagnana tour<\/strong>, we recommend you see the Fortress of Mont’Alfonso<\/strong>, a fortified military structure dating back to the sixteenth century.\u00a0It served as a defensive garrison on the border of the Duchy of Ferrara (of which the Garfagnana was part) with the Duchy of Lucca.\u00a0Today it is home to numerous events and concerts, especially during the summer.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Castiglione di Garfagnana<\/h3>\n

Near Castelnuovo<\/strong> there are many picturesque places where you can continue the discovery of the territory.\u00a0A ten-minute drive we can find Castiglione di Garfagnana<\/em><\/strong>, characterized by a city wall and a fortress dating from the Roman domination.\u00a0A beautiful village where to enjoy a romantic walk.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Isola Santa<\/h3>\n

The village of Isola Santa<\/strong> is perhaps one of the most evocative of the whole Garfagnana<\/strong>.\u00a0It rises on the banks of a small artificial basin.\u00a0Along the path that leads to the lake, it seems to go back in time.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gramolazzo<\/h3>\n

The lake of Gramolazzo<\/strong> is the largest of the Garfagnana<\/em> and is bathing.\u00a0It is equipped with a lovely artificial beach and a small pier from which you can go around the lake by boat.\u00a0Gramolazzo<\/strong> is an extraordinary destination for an afternoon of relaxation, especially for those with small children.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Verrucole Fortress<\/h3>\n

The Verrucole Fortress<\/strong> is located in San Romano\u00a0 di Garfagnana<\/em>, a small medieval village.\u00a0The structure stands out imposing, and is home to the Archeopark<\/strong>, a real living museum.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Vagli Lake<\/h3>\n

Under the waters of Vagli Lake<\/strong> are hidden the remains of the old town, which was submerged following the construction of the dam and the formation of the artificial basin.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Grotta del Vento<\/h3>\n

The Grotta del Vento<\/strong> is a complex system of caves and inlets dug into the rock, over the millennia, by the infiltration of water. Among the routes of different difficulty, you can admire stalactites and stalagmites, caves, streams and alabaster formations. It seems to be in a great natural temple.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hermitage of Calomini<\/h3>\n

Among the things to see in Garfagnana<\/strong>, just near Casa Vacanza La Pozza<\/strong> there is the Hermitage of Calomini<\/em><\/strong>. It is a structure almost entirely carved into the rock, from which you can admire a splendid view over the valley.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0 Monte Forato<\/h3>\n

Legend has it that Monte Forato<\/strong> originated after the clash between San Pellegrino and the Devil. It is a rock arch that joins two peaks, drawing a hole in the mountain. Very suggestive the double sunset observable when the sun disappears behind the arch, and then it reappears in the hole.<\/p>\n

All these wonders and much more await you near Casa Vacanze La Pozza<\/strong> during your holiday in Garfagnana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
