A beautiful hike to search for wolves near Rome
The wolf is the symbol of Rome
and it has always been deeply rooted in the collective imagination of
mankind. Surprisingly, this elusive animal can be found only 28 km far
from the Colosseum, more precisely on the mountains Prenestini, between
Tivoli and Palestrina. From the summit of Mount Guadagnolo, you can
enjoy a wonderful view over the Roman countryside and the Apennines. We
shall walk from the village of San Gregorio da Sassola to the mountain
ridge and along the way we will look for the signs of the wolf, and we
will check the videos of its passage, on some fototraps that I've placed
in the area. A beautiful hike in the nature in search of the lord of
the woods.
