About Casa Santicchio
Casa Santicchio, nestled in the serene province of Arezzo in Tuscany, offers a unique retreat experience surrounded by lush oak and beech woods. This historic farmhouse, far removed from the hustle and bustle of modern life, has welcomed pilgrims since the year 1000. It sits along the ancient Via Major (or Via Romea di Stade), a route once traveled by those journeying to Rome, and now frequented by pilgrims moving between the Hermitage of Camaldoli and the Sanctuary of Chiusi della Verna, where Saint Francis received the stigmata.
Promoted by the Association Una Valle che Cammina, Casa Santicchio embodies sustainable tourism, encouraging guests to discover the region's natural and cultural treasures at a slower pace, fostering a deeper connection with nature, the environment, and a simpler way of life.
Located in Casentino, the upper valley of the Arno River, this area is renowned for its natural beauty and spiritual significance, with historical sites like Camaldoli and La Verna. Casa Santicchio, situated on the slopes of Mount Penna, serves as a refuge for modern-day pilgrims, hikers, and those seeking tranquility and reflection.
Experience the rich spiritual heritage, breathtaking landscapes, and the timeless peace of Casa Santicchio, a perfect venue for a company retreat that prioritizes mindfulness, relaxation, and a return to nature.
