Discover Italy's 'wild heart' and its beautiful landscapes
The process of “rewilding” helps to restore our 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, you will 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 and 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 is 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.
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 24°–35° C and average rainfall is between 1,000 and 2,000 millimetres per year, which is higher on the Tyrrhenian slopes than on the eastern, or Adriatic, side of the Apennines.
This itinerary includes 4 days walking in mountainous terrain with transport to and from start/end points of walks. Some of the days are quite long, sometimes involving an ascent of 700m followed by a similar descent. This will mean 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 good health and reasonably fit as walking takes place on recognised trails. Some walks take place at altitudes up to 2,200 metres, 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 pace of your group. However, in general, days average about two to five hours and up to eight miles in distance. This trip is not advised for severe vertigo sufferers.
