Area Campagna

The Castel d'Aiano area, home to Trip’n Nature, is one of the most captivating regions of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, abundant in unspoiled landscapes, historical remnants, and authentic villages. Nature takes center stage here, with chestnut forests, meadows, and hills creating an ideal setting for those who enjoy walking, trekking, and outdoor activities. The CAI trails intertwine with enchanting locations, such as the Riola Caves, a natural complex that houses stunning underground scenery, and the Labante Waterfalls, among the most impressive in Europe, formed from natural travertine.

The region also maintains a strong connection to its history. The paths along the Gothic Line evoke memories of World War II and provide opportunities to explore museums and monuments that narrate the area's past. Close by stands the Rocchetta Mattei, an extraordinary 19th-century structure with an eclectic character, combining various styles in a fairytale-like castle that is one of the most visited in the region.

In addition to natural and cultural routes, the area boasts a rich gastronomic tradition. The local taverns and inns serve typical Emilian and mountain dishes, accompanied by authentic products made by small local producers. Cheeses, cured meats, mushrooms, and chestnuts are among the stars of a cuisine that reflects the simple and genuine soul of these lands.

Therefore, staying in Castel d’Aiano means immersing oneself in an environment that blends relaxation, adventure, and culture, with the chance to experience human-scale activities away from mass tourism, close to the true essence of the Apennines.
