If you take the road to Montefegatesi that goes past Monti di Villa and keep your eyes peeled you will spot a perfect place to stop to get excellent views of this gorgeous village. I went with friends in November and was rewarded with this lovely sight.
Every time I visit Montefegatesi I am reminded of the tenacity of the early settlers to these mountain villages. They must have been made of stern stuff.

I was there! Beautiful, photos
It is a gorgeous area.
Yeah! Italy is very beautiful!
Lovely shots Debra.
It is a good vantage point.
Montefegatesi Is a beautiful village in any season. I think it is my favourite mountain village in Bagni di Lucca.
I like it too. It manages to look wonderful in any season.
Beautiful village with the best mushroom risotto!
I will look for the risotto on my next visit.
Stunning!
Montefegatesi is very impressive.
It is certainly a beautiful village with spectacular views.
It has an advantage being the highest of the Bagni di Lucca villages.

Lovely photos of a beautiful ancient mountain village. Although I spent a month in Italy some years ago (there’s a post about it on my blog), I did not visit that region. I would certainly like to! Now following you…
You must come to Bagni di Lucca on your next visit.
Thanks–I would love to!

I agree, Debra, I’m constantly amazed how those villagers built their homes and churches in such high altitudes and rocky terrain, and the fact these buildings stood the tests of time. Montefegatesi is truly a beautiful mountain village basking in the Autumn sun. I feel sorry for other villages wrecked by recent earthquakes, and hope they get the help they needed.
They were a tough bunch who built these mountain villages.
What a lovely place! I’m thinking about visiting at the end of next month, what is the parking situation in town like?
There is a car park just outside the village. The streets are very narrow in the village with little room for cars.
