The best of both worlds – Hiking in Rome while exploring nature
Alternative urban walking tours in Rome’s nature
Urban hiking allows you to explore Rome, without the need to travel long distances to reach natural hiking destinations.
It also promotes the conservation of green spaces and natural habitats within the city and is a great way to connect with nature, escape the crowds, and participate in a new, popular, and alternative way of sustainable tourism.
Rome is considered Europe’s green heart. In fact, few cities have so many green areas. Some are still left in their original state, so it’s still possible to find less-known and beautiful trails with a wilderness feeling right within the city.
At the same time through the stories, local myths, and ruins we can get a more clear picture of how nature had a big share in enabling the Roman empire’s success!
Book our regular hikes or inquire about a tailor-made private hike.
