Without a car

Though you will probably find it easier to have a car while staying in Moggiona, it is possible to arrive without one. There are two or three buses a day to/from the nearest town, Poppi (around 10km away/15 minutes’ drive), operated by La Ferroviaria Italiana (LFI). Alternatively, upon arrival in Poppi you could ask in one of the bars for a taxi.

Poppi is served by fairly regular trains to Arezzo (journey time 1 hour), operated by Trasporto Ferroviario Toscano (TFT). There are also coaches to Firenze (journey time 1.5-2 hours) run by the SITA bus company.
