By Train from Faenza to Florence, Passing Through Brisighella

Traveling doesn’t have to break the bank! Few people know this, but the "Faentina" railway line has been around since the 19th century

Known as "La Faentina," this historic railway connects Faenza to Florence on a single route, passing through charming towns like Brisighella, Marradi, and Fiesole.

Not only does this route offer an affordable way to travel between Romagna and Tuscany—round trip Faenza-Florence tickets cost just €21.60—but it also allows passengers to admire some of the most stunning landscapes of the Apennine Mountains.


A Journey Through Tradition and Beauty

Among the many stops along the way are picturesque villages rich in history and culture, such as Marradi, Fiesole, and Borgo San Lorenzo, where you’ll find elegant historic buildings and ancient churches worth exploring.

If you love trekking or mountain biking, you can rent a bike and hop off at any of the small mountain stations to immerse yourself in the Apennines. The possibilities for adventure and exploration are endless!

On warm summer or vibrant autumn days, we recommend stopping in Fiesole and continuing to Florence by hiking through the breathtaking trails and scenic views of the Florentine countryside. It’s an experience you’ll never forget!


Connections Beyond Brisighella

For those looking to explore further, the Brisighella train station connects to the region’s main railway lines, making it easy to reach Ravenna and other local attractions.
