BETWEEN THE MUGELLO AND THE VAL DI SIEVE

As soon as you reach Dicomano you realise once that this is a town that creates a special impression. It’s an instinctive feeling, inspired by the first effect of the place with its old town centre that almost hides itself at a first glance and its main square, very wide, bright an filled with people who seem they are not annoyed by the cars passing through the streets around the square traveling to Florence, Casentino and Romagna.
On the contrary, the citizens of Dicomano are used to live in meeting and exchange place of different experiences and traditions and for this reason they have developed a natural gift for hospitality, friendliness and sociability.
Also the geographical configuration of the town appears to be the meeting point of different landscapes.
From Dicomano one can choose to climb up to discover mountain landscapes or to enjoy the gentle hilly and level scenery. The town seems to be "protected" by the Apennine range overlooking it from north, but it also stretches out south to the wide valley, which becomes flatter and flatter towards Rufina and Pontassieve.
To be a synthesis of different landscape impressions is therefore the distinctive characteristic of the commune of Dicomano.
