Monte Cupolino, Mountain summit in Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, Italy

Monte Cupolino reaches an elevation of 1,852 meters between the municipalities of Fanano and San Marcello Piteglio in the Italian Apennine mountain range.

The mountain area near Lake Scaffaiolo received recognition in Boccaccio's literary work 'De Montibus' from 1373, documenting its geographical importance through centuries.

The Duca degli Abruzzi mountain refuge, established in 1878, maintains its role as a central meeting point for mountaineers exploring the Tuscan-Emilian peaks.

Multiple hiking trails of varying difficulty levels lead to the summit, with markers and rest points positioned strategically along the established mountain paths.

The nearby Lake Scaffaiolo formed through natural erosion processes rather than glacial activity, creating a distinctive water body at high altitude without natural springs.
