Discover the wild heart and beautiful landscapes of Italy
The rewilding process helps to restore nature’s ecosystems and biodiversity, for wildlife to return and thrive, while also combatting climate change by increasing the land’s ability to absorb carbon. During this six-day experience, we witness the intimate relationship between wild nature and local communities. This is the perfect way to see first-hand the beneficial impact of rewilding and the importance of using wildlife corridors to connect protected areas, thereby supporting the comeback of iconic indigenous species. The wild and dramatic landscape here is home to chamois, deer, wolves and golden eagles, as well as the rare Marsican brown bear. In addition to wildlife, we experience the region’s ever-hospitable people and their colourful, authentic culture. Led by highly skilled nature guides and sustained by some of the finest local food and wine, a journey into the Central Apennines is truly an exploration of Italy’s wild heart. This trip visits the area that is being rewilding in partnership with Rewilding Europe, through our Nature and Carbon Corridors project. All profits from the sale of this trip will go to Rewilding Europe’s vital biodiversity restoration work. On this tour, our VIP Rewilding Team Leader is Mario Cipollone. Our local Nature Guide may be Valeria Roselli or Andrea De Angelis. Did you know you can travel by train to this trip? Find out more here
The climate of the highest section of the Apennines is continental (as found in the interior of Europe) but made more pleasant by Mediterranean influences. Snowfalls are frequent, with cold winters and hot summers. Average summer temperature is 24C-35C (75F-95F) and average rainfall is 39in-78in (1,000mm-2,000mm) per year, which is higher on the Tyrrhenian slopes than on the eastern, or Adriatic, side of the Apennines.
This itinerary includes four days of walking in mountainous terrain with transport to and from the start/end points of the walks. Some days are quite long, sometimes involving an ascent of 2,295ft (700m) followed by a similar descent. This means steadily walking uphill for a few hours and then the same down again. The paths are rocky and steep in sections but generally well maintained. Due to the quality of the trails, the general ‘civilisation’ of the area and the relative shortness of the trek, we rate it as an Activity Level 3 (Moderate). Previous walking experience is an advantage; however, the trek should be within the capabilities of anyone in good health and who is reasonably fit as walking takes place on recognised trails. Some walks take place at altitudes up to 7,220ft (2,200m), where temperatures can be cool and there are high levels of humidity. Please ensure you pack appropriate clothing.
Walking hours stated are given as approximates only and include lunch and photo stops and will vary depending on the group’s pace. Typically, days average about two to five hours and up to 8mi (13km). This trip is not advised for severe vertigo sufferers.
