Monte Morello
Florence & Countryside
"The highest peak near Florence, boasting panoramic views of the city and beyond."
Laden with outlined trails, Monte Morello is a popular destination for cyclists, runners, and even those seeking a fun motorbike drive. The roadsides are lined with a variety of lush trees like chestnut, oak, white fir, black pine, and cypress — providing a cool climate for the active sort exploring these parts. Thanks to its elevation, low-hanging mist rolls around the mountain, perched 934 meters above sea level (and each of its three peaks sits at a different altitude). It’s an hour’s drive from the city.
