Lunigiana
Mountain Trekking
La Lunigiana is another extraordinary area bordering Garfagnana but situated entirely in the province of Massa Carrara; a place full of history, parishes, castles, traditions, beautiful landscapes, customs and good food.
Must-sees in Lunigiana:
- the medieval villages like Fivizzano, Casola in Lunigaina, Mulazzo, Zeri and many others
- the numerous parishes spread throughout the territory
- the numerous castles and forts, like the Castle of Fosdinovo, the Fortress of Verrucola near Fivizzano, the Fortress of Brunella ad Aulla
- the routes, like those of Cerreto and Lagastrello.
There are numerous feasts and events held during the summer season, a culturally memorable one being the Premio Bancarella (Booth Prize) held in the “bookseller’s town” of Mulazzo; another literary prize, which has been held for a few years now, is the Silent Book Contest.
