The picturesque stone built mountain village of Corfino (822 m asl), on the foothills of the majestic “Pania di Corfino”, is over 1000 years old and has stupendous views of both the Apuan Alps and Apennines. There are a number of good hotels and restaurants as well as 3 grocery shops and a post office. Tennis, horse riding and skiing are available close by.

Corfino is a short way away from the beautiful Orecchiella National Park, well known for its uncrowded trails and byways from which visitors can enjoy the local wildlife and flora. These include royal eagles, royal owls, hawk, deer and the recently re-introduced rams and wolves.

Corfino is 20 minutes from Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, about 1 hour and 10 minutes from Lucca and just over 1.5 hours drive from Pisa airport. The main Pisa – Lucca- Aulla train line is 20 minutes away.
