The Casentino is an area to the east of Tuscany in the province of Arezzo near Florence. This beautiful area of Tuscany is famous for unspoiled nature and the presence of
numerous medieval castles. In addition to visiting the castles of the Casentino, perhaps taking long walks in the woods to reach them, do not miss a visit to the Sanctuary of
La Verna and the hermitage of
Camaldoli. The peace and tranquility of these places will offer you magical moments away from the stress of everyday life. A pause that surely you deserve and it's about time to treat yourself!
Among the typical products of the Casentino we suggest that you taste the traditional Tuscan dishes prepared with delicious ingredients typical of this area as the Red Potato Cetica, the Apple Ruggina and the Apple Nesta, the trout of the Casentino, mushrooms, Casentino ham, the cold meats 'rigatino' and 'sopprassata'. Many first courses made of pasta to taste, but among these we must not forget the ravioli to the plate of the Casentino, a delicious type of pasta cooked on the stone.
Among the events in Casentino do not miss the Medieval Festival of Mea which takes place every August in Bibbiena and that will bring you back in time. To appreciate the typical products of the Casentino, we suggest that you attend the event 'Gusto dei Guidi', also in August, in Poppi. If you will spend your holiday in Casentino in winter, you certainly not have to miss the Carnival of Bibbiena, famous throughout Tuscany.
