The national park of the Casentino Forests:
was established in 1991 and was the first Italian Nature Reserve "Sasso Fratino", a remarkable natural-life laboratory protected and cared for.

The National Park of the Casentino Forests covers an area of 35,170 acres.

Beyond the incredible natural beauty and various specimens of fauna, the Park offers within its boundaries places rich in spirituality such as Camaldoli and Laverna. These monasteries with their parish churches, villages and castles give not only a sense of natural protection to the Park but also contribute to the artistic, architectural and historical aspect of the area.

Parco Comunale del Canto alla Rana: at 4 km from Corsignano:
The town park "Canto alla Rana" is close to the historical centre. It is a vast park which has been developed on the banks of the Arno before the river, which rises in Falterona, reaches Stia.

Shady walks abound in this beautiful, uncontaminated area. It is possible to swim in the fresh, calm waters of the Arno at "Gorgone" where a natural swimming pool has been created. Bathing huts are available and there is a huge grass area near to the river for sunbathing. There is also a sand pitch for beach volley. The park is accesible to everyone and is excellent meeting point for those wishing to organise excursions in close contact with nature.
