Together with Nature of Sal (@natureofsal) we bring you the best experiences for nature lovers, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts!
Embark on a journey where nature’s wonders and a touch of adventure await at every turn. Along the trail, there’s a good chance of encountering semi-wild, free-roaming horses and majestic Maremmana cows—some weighing up to an awe-inspiring 2 tons! Imagine meeting these gentle giants as you weave through the serene forest paths of the Lucretili Mountains, one of the wildest and most untamed regional parks near Rome.
Your path takes you through enchanting centuries-old beech forests, across expansive plateaus, and culminates at the summit of one of Rome’s most iconic mountains. At the top, you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking 360° panorama (weather permitting).
Worried about transportation? We’ve got you covered.
For those without cars, we facilitate carpooling, connecting participants who have cars with those who need a ride. We’ll meet at a designated spot before driving together to the trailhead, ensuring a stress-free start to this unforgettable adventure.
This is more than a hike; it’s an authentic immersion into nature’s raw beauty, just a stone’s throw from the Eternal City. Perfect for those craving both serenity and the thrill of discovery.
