카페나 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Slightly hidden and covered by bush but still interesting to observe along the way

Very well maintained, well marked and simple trails. Suitable for everyone and for many sports such as cycling, hiking and running.

Don't do this route during this period. Today at Monte Calvio we had to urgently turn back because of mud (more like quicksand, inevitable) and it's already too much if we managed to get there. Impracticable terrain full of water and mud everywhere and plants with thorns everywhere. Full of footprints and excrement of wild boars.

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.

The Gattaceca scrub is always a spectacle of colours.

from Lazio Nascosco: "Between the via Campagnanese and the via Flaminia there is the locality Casalaccio (or Castellaccio), the name clearly derives from the presence of the ruins of the vast complex of a Roman villa which in ancient times was accessed from a paved road that branched off from the Via Flaminia. It must have been a complex of particular prestige as the excavations revealed numerous colored marbles, stuccos and mosaics. Today, among the ruins a particularly monumental building stands out: a cistern for the collection and distribution of water, equipped with powerful buttresses, which in the Middle Ages was reused as a fortress".
