Surroundings

Mont'Alfonso rises up on an elevation just outside Castelnuovo, the main town and the centre of the green Garfagnana which forms the northern part of Serchio river valley, hold among the foothills of the Apuan Alps and the Apennines mountains. Palleroso, Monterotondo, Antisciana, Gragnanella, Cerretoli, Colle and Rontano are typical villages, of ancient origin, located in picturesque environments and their trails, crossing green woods, allow to dive in nature discovering at the same time the story of a population with its daily rhythms and rural civilization architecture.
Around the hill where there is Mont'Alfonso Fortress, a path was equipped, the "Path of Ariosto," which allows hiking in green around the fort; you enter the path from the main town and the peripheral village of Torrite both.
