The area sits in the hills between the lower Arno plain and the Valdera, with mixed farmland, olive groves, vineyards and wooded ridges. The nearest river landscape of note is the Arno plain to the north, while within the local hills the countryside is shaped more by small valleys than by a major water feature. Pisa is the nearest city of size, with the airport, university and the monuments around Piazza dei Miracoli; Pontedera is closer for everyday services and rail links. Lari has a historic hilltop centre with its castle, and Casciana Terme is known for its thermal baths. The wider area is known for wine, olive oil and rolling agricultural countryside.
