Tips
The nature reserve extends over about a thousand hectares between the Tiber Valley and the Cornicolani Mountains, in the Roman Sabina. The landscape is hilly, with pasture areas, crops and fragments of woods, remnants of the original forests. The area is known for its botanical value and for karst phenomena such as caves and sinkholes, including the Pozzo del Merro, one of the deepest in the world. The reserve also preserves historical evidence, from prehistory to the Middle Ages.
