Casentino

Mount Falterona, which represents the northern border of Casentino valley, has also been quoted by Dante Alighieri in his Divine Comedy: “... a streamlet that is born in Falterona, and not a hundred miles of course suffice it...”. The streamlet which Dante referred to is Arno, the most important Tuscan river.
