The Garfagnana is world famous as a walking and trekking holiday area. There are countless mapped and sign posted routes, some lasting for hours, some for days, many of which are easily reached from here. The nearest town is Castelnuovo Garfagnana (17km), but Lucca is barely an hour away; why not make La Betulla your base for a vacation in Tuscany? LaBetullaIm3

The azienda still has a working water mill that is used to grind local chestnuts into flour (farina), and produces cheese, salami, honey and jams, all of which are available to buy. You may dine in the adjoining restaurant, which is well known for its excellent home-cooking and merits a place in the prestigious guidebook `Guida alle osterie dŽItaliaŽ.
