Yes, CAI (acronym for "Club Alpino Italiano") is the main italian mountain 
hiking organization. It publishes books, you can browse the list [1] on their 
web site. For Toscany you might want to see also the regional section website 
[3], the map of the trail (sentieri) and alpine hut (rifugi) network [4], the 
list of alpine huts [5], and the list of local sections [6].

Usually they are signed. The standard symbol used by CAI is red and white, for 
general information read more on this [7] page in the section "segnaletica" 
(italian only, but there are plenty of pictures of what you might expect).
