This brief itinerary allows you to visit the most meaningful places of the northern section of our territory to Castagno d'Andrea.

Starting point
The itinerary starts at Dicomano

Along the stream Comano
After leaving the neoclassical building of St. Onofrio behind you, take the national road nr 67 (SS 67) and head towards San Bavello. Here, besides the rural church, it is worth mentioning a still operating water mill. The road continues uphill, never turning too steep, to eventually reach the village of San Godenzo.

S. Godenzo
The historical centre is definitely worth a visit, for both the cosy old village and the imposing Abbey of S. Godenzo in Alpe, a remarkable religious building in Romanesque style.

Castagno d'Andrea
Back to the entrance of the village of S. Godenzo, take the - somewhat steeper - road to Castagno, with good views into the surrounding valleys. Not much remains of the original village of Castagno, because of wars, destructions and landslides. Two are the buildings worth visiting:
- the church of S. Martino, a simple, austere building that would not be worth mentioning if not for some interesting frescos by Pietro Annigoni and his pupil Silvestro Pistolesi.
- The Visitor Centre of the National Park (Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona e Campigna) and, on the floor above
- The Andrea del Castagno Virtual Museum, displaying copies of the major works of this painter of the Renaissance.
