Borgonuovo: Hiking Routes and Marrone DOP
Accommodation in Borgonuovo

The Marrone di Caprese Michelangelo and the Antica Fiera accommodation provide further specific points of reference.
Hiking and Cycling in Caprese Michelangelo
The Caprese Michelangelo area offers hiking and cycling routes. One specific hiking option is the CAI route SI L03S: it starts in Caprese Michelangelo, passes through old chestnut and beech forests, and ends at the Eremo della Casella. This makes it possible to understand the route in terms of its starting point, scenery, and destination, rather than viewing it as just another hike. When planning, it is especially worth considering whether you want to make the forest section or the Eremo the main focus of your outing. Hiking and cycling are presented as different ways to explore the area.
Two Routes with Different Highlights
The western route of the Via di Francesco runs from La Verna to Anghiari and passes through Caprese Michelangelo. Its focus differs from that of the SI L03S: for the Via di Francesco, the two endpoints and the route through the municipality are key; the CAI route starts in Caprese Michelangelo and passes through chestnut and beech forests to the Eremo della Casella. You can therefore ask yourself a specific question when choosing: would you prefer to follow the route between La Verna and Anghiari, or take the individual hike to the Eremo? The different place names offer two specific approaches to planning your outing.
Marrone di Caprese Michelangelo
The Marrone di Caprese Michelangelo also provides a regional point of reference for your stay. It has held the protected designation of origin DOP since 2009. This makes it a clearly identified product with a protected origin, alongside the routes. The designation adds a theme to your travel planning that differs from routes and modes of transport: the region’s local produce. If you want to consider not only routes but also the area’s culinary character when planning, the Marrone is a specific point of reference.
Getting Around on Line SI392
In the line SI392 timetable, the Località BORGONUOVO stop comes after Ponte Singerna. The timetable is valid from July 27, 2026. Check the departure times for your travel day before setting out; this will let you plan around the times listed.
