Winter has arrived in Bagni di Lucca, bringing with it cool, misty days. I think it is a beautiful time of the year, especially when I drive through scenery like this on the way to Casa Debbio in Vergemoli.
It is worth braving a bit of cold weather when this is the result.
Take a look at the New House in Vergemoli category for more on the village and our pile of rocks that became a house.
Glad you have that warm house – tho it does look so wintery and wonderful.

I think the mountains look great in winter.

It’s heavenly looking, it really is. Sort of other-worldly. Like something out of a JRR Tolkien novel, or CS Lewis. Mythic.

Lovely to see some snow. From here you can see all the way to the Asiago highland and Monte Grappa on a clear day. Just wonderful! Skiing next weekend!

The whole mountain area of northern Tuscany is beautiful, and quite different from the Chianti area.

We have had some wild weather lately, but it makes for some beautiful scenery.

What a Place!
The view of the valley in between the snow capped mountains looks great.
And I am just imagining how it would look in summer?

Gosh, those views are stunning! (It’s fun to see the WordPress “snow” over the snow-capped mountains, also.)
Hugs from Ecuador,

Beautiful photos they look like Chines art.
I visited this area back in 1966
I never realised it could look as magic as your photos.
