Le Tagliole between mountain trails and the Via dei Remi

Le Tagliole is located in the upper Valle delle Tagliole in the Frignano Regional Park. The valley is bordered to the south by Monte Giovo and Monte Rondinaio, to the east by Monte Modino and to the west by Monte Nuda. This geographical setting makes the area interesting for travellers who would like to explore a mountain landscape with clear natural and cultural connections.

Landscape and orientation in the Valle delle Tagliole

The Valle delle Tagliole is considered a geosite of local significance. The tourist routes to the geosites in the upper Valle delle Tagliole have been equipped with signposts. For your planning, geological orientation and a landscape whose paths invite different forms of exploration come together here.

Trails through Tagliole

Several trails pass through or reach Le Tagliole: CAI trail 535MO Tagliole–Roncoglione passes through Tagliole, as does CAI trail 533MO Tagliole–Monte Nuda. The Chiese e Briganti trail of the Sentieri della Rosa Canina reaches Tagliole. On the circular walk to Casa Paretto, CAI trail 535 leads back approximately 3 km to the Le Tagliole car park. The approximate distance remains a useful reference point for planning your day.

The starting point of the Chiese e Briganti trail is also in Le Tagliole: it begins at the sports field on the municipal road to Lago Santo. Le Antiche Orme is a nature trail along the road to Lago Santo. The educational stations there help visitors identify the traces of the main animal species in the Parco dell'Alto Appennino. For trip planning, these trail connections cater to different interests—from following a route to identifying animal tracks.

Historical traces and local stories

A trace of the Via dei Remi has been preserved at Casolare Pian dei Remi. The Via dei Remi existed from 1625 to 1791 and was used to supply timber for the arsenals of Pisa and Livorno. As a result, alongside its landscape-related trail themes, Le Tagliole also has a concrete connection to the route's historical use.

The ruins of Cà di Rilla lie along the route starting from Tagliole. A local legend connects them with the bandit Rilla. From the highest point of this trail, there is a view of Monte Modino, Monte Cimone and other surrounding mountains. Cultural history and mountain panoramas emerge here as two different perspectives on the same stretch of trail.

Choose Le Tagliole as your destination

When choosing a hotel, you can focus on the mountain landscape, the geosite in the Valle delle Tagliole, the signposted visitor trails or the historic traces of the Via dei Remi. This keeps your accommodation choice aligned with your own interests, without reducing Le Tagliole to just one attraction. The combination of trails, nature observation and local history offers several clear thematic points of interest.
