casentino hotel

The Casentino is the name of the upper valley of the Arno, through which the river flows from its source in Mt Falterona as far as the vicinity of Arezzo. Here its waters escape from the confining Apennines into the plain and continue more placidly towards Florence. The Arno rises at no great distance from its brother, the Tiber, and runs parallel to it for a while, as if both had been marked out to share a splendid destiny. Indeed they are separated only by a sharp ridge, high up on which the monasteries of La Verna and Camaldoli stand sentinel over their respective valleys. But the basin of the youthful Arno is more smiling than that of the Tiber, greener and less rugged, its gracious contours wonderfully balanced by the hand of nature and the work of those who have populated and cultivated it with intelligence and simplicity.
