View of Valdarno

Highlight • Viewpoint

Ten meters from the hiking trail is a fantastic vantage point with sweeping views of the Valdarno. There's no seating, but it's still great!

Cross and Monument of Secchieta

Highlight • Monument

It's essentially the summit of Mount Secchieta. The other nearby peak is difficult to reach, occupied by several repeaters and fenced off.
The cross and chapel commemorate the Resistance.

Built in 1605, it was called dell'Abate "for every Abbot, who will be pro tempore". It was in the 18th century that the Chapel was dedicated to San Girolamo.

Ristorante Santa Caterina

Highlight • Restaurant

There are a few negative Google reviews, but the restaurant has just reopened and now has a great selection of snacks, light meals, and drinks. And the staff is super friendly. Seating is available both inside and outside.

Fonte Santa Caterina

Highlight • Natural Monument

On the road between Saltino and Vallombrosa, this little fountain is just behind the roadside restaurant. Not very special, but the environment is very nice (in the forest - lots of shade).

Another varied hike in Casentino, this time from the Pratomagno ridge on the west side down to Vallombrosa Abbey and back up again.
