With its collection of waterfalls, the Lago di Ridracoli, wildlife like wolves and deer, chestnut trees where mushrooms grow nearby (which you can enjoy picking), and verdant ranges that become snow-capped in the winter, Foreste Casentinesi is magical! The national park is ideal for nature enthusiasts, outdoor adventurers, and families looking for things to do in the Arezzo area.
